Angus can you sign these?

[Feral]

Angus,

I think I might be needing you to sign a couple of these during the classic, got a problem with that?

http://www.ansa.com.au/page4.html

Because I have often done better than whats on the list, and reckon I can do it again at the Classic!

(You might notice Ray's barra from Awoonga was only about 10 kilo's over the listed national record!)

I'd like someone with more knowledge of these to enlighten me... because:

SHARK BLUE 54.000 Corey Joosen North Shore VIC 27-02-00

SHARK BROAD NOSE S/GILL 44.500 Danny Casilli Port Phillip Bay VIC 26-09-01

SHARK GUMMY 15.800 Craig Gibbons Swan Bay VIC 19-08-00

SHARK HAMMERHEAD 31.200 Wayne Colling Laggers Point NSW 01-01-00

SHARK MAKO 52.000 Nicholas Rawson Queenscliffe VIC 06-03-04

SHARK SCHOOL 28.000 Shane Sanders Northshore VIC 11-06-00

SHARK THRESHER 85.500 Jim Robinson Port Lonsdale VIC 12-03-05

SHARK TIGER 490.000 Arman Cokun Shelf Off Sydney NSW 24-03-06

SHARK WHALER (ALL) 319.000 Travis Anderson Kiama Wide NSW 07-02-04

in the All Tackle Records..

That's Name, Weight, Angler, Location, Date

490kg ? for a Tiger.. ok I can accept that.

31kg for the record Hammer? wtf?

[Feral]

Could be out of date, or even a typo, but it is such a pain applying for records,no body bothers. Many fisherman are suprised to find they often catch fish are are over record marks!

[Angus]

Not to mention some records only count when caught on specific gear etc. So although a 400kh hammer may have been caught, it might not be counted, or even submitted for acknowledgement.

Ill have a look at those forms Andrew but i dont think that would be a problem.

[werewolf]

i'm curious, whats the record for a bull?

[Brian D]

Angus I think he just wants you to sign it and send it back for him to fill in the details!

While you are there I'll have a couple also thanks.:woohoo:

you will have a hard time claiming any ansa records unless you are a member and go through one hell of a rigmarole with line samples, double knots leader sizes and lengths,on and on, ad neauseum qld records are nearly as bad, you have to be a member of, the qld fishing clubs association,witnessed photographed on certified scales etc> i might still have some record application forms and coppies of last years records.i'll bring them on the weekend if i can find them.

[Feral]

Brian's idea sounds good!

I am not being serious - Just geeing you all for the comp! We dont qualify as we are not an afiliated club.

I tell you what though Feral, maybe its something that could be looked at for next years comp. (I'm allready planning things I wanna do next year that I won't be able to this year;) )

It would be cool if someone caught a decent shark, say on 4 pound or something ridiculous, and then be able to claim a record:P

For terry and Werewolf, here are a lot of shark records, including bull sharks and massive hammerheads, not just a 31 kilo one: http://www.hotspotfishing.com/records/fish-records-Shark.asp

Edit: these are for everywhere in the world though, not just Australia
