This week has certainly been interesting with uncomfortable weather conditions and plenty of fish being caught. While the conditions subsided allowing anglers to get out and about on Sunday some excellent reports filtered through.

1496lb is the weight of the largest Blue Fin tuna ever caught. The brute was caught by Ken Fraser off the coast of Nova Scotia in 1979.
It is still the worlds all tackle record.

Darwin, Northern Territory
Happy fathers day to all. As a special treat for my dad, I took him barra fishing in the Northern Territory as a fathers day present. Dad peaked early with a beautiful fish and the barra just keep coming. Check out the last fish that throws the lure in flight and still manages to end up in the net.
