queensland Best Catch Yet

[Do$tylz]

It has been so long since I've done a report or participated here that I think at least half the guys on AFO wouldn't even know who I was

But anyway - just wanted to share my latest catch. I had to post it and bring it back here. I can't remember who the first was to do this but it was here that I first saw it and ever since I knew I would do the same.

Used my own tackle and soaked the bait for a while. 9 months later it finally paid off and we even named her - Eve Do. 4.04kg, 39cm to the fork, 59 to the tip.

Can't wait to get her fishing and get her onto her first fish on topwater.

Congratulations mate!! Love the brag mat pic. I got my daughter fishing young and now I'm not allowed to go without her.

Great stuff Henry, well done mate.  What day did she arrive for interests sake - and was that bay session your last one before her birth ......? Like me you'll be in a big hurry for her to grow up so you can take her fishing (and go fishing more .... you'll understand soon enough ....).

[K-Lub]

ahahah i heard you got smashed on the drop! lol jokes , congrats again mate happy for you both!

[Angus]

Once again bro... congrats.

[Swagger]

Would have hit the magical 60cm if you stretched the legs out a little!

[Avitir]

One you definitely would not catch and release!

 

Congrats. At least she should be a good alarm clock for some early morning wake ups and an excuse for an early fishing trip

[Binder]

Congratulations Henry.

Its all nappies and bottles now, no more lures and reels

[straddiebrad]

[ausangler]

congrats mate, good to see you went with the landing net and not the gaf   

[Gad]

I`m a little late Henry, congrats to you and your lady. You guys have just moved on to the next phase of ' the meaning of life'.

When my eldest was born, my old man told me " teach a child how to think, and not what to think, and you won`t go too far wrong". Looking back over 35 years, he was a lot smarter than I thought he was.

Have been a bit caught up with being back at work and the new baby takes up a little bit of time too

 

@kmcrosby78 she popped out the Friday following (15th) so yeah that trip was my last. For a little while at least.

And that you everyone for the kinds words. Amazingly the hair is a feature of the wifes side of the family. My side all came out with no hair. It is definitely a new chapter in life and I can only hope that I raise her to be a good person who can fish like a boss
