Nobody is going to believe me but I managed to land this on 3 kilo line with no leader!!!! Took at least five minutes to land and stripped line off my reel at least thirty times. Hope it counts because it was just south of Queensland.

And here's the secret weapon. Special thanks to my old man for his patience with the net. Every time I got it near the bugger took off on another run, but dad never tried to scoop it up. Couldn't believe it when I finally coaxed it in, I was just waiting for the line to snap at any moment on its gills but by some miracle it didn't. I think what saved me was patience and keeping its head under water while I tired it out. [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/worm.jpg
