Nice one Dave, good size fish, I wish we had quality fish like that here but would be damm hard to find

I suppose the average caught bass locally here would be around 1.5 - 2kg, I'd have to go right out some 20 - 30 odd miles into the English Channel and go wreck fishing for anything substantial, we do get cod possibly of around 15kg if one is very lucky
The bass would be an extremely good size fish if one went 7.5kg

You'll no doubt get yer avairy finished some time Dave

Be lucky

It must have been mid-moult....its wings look too short.

Nice Barramundi Dave, did you let it go at that size and where did you catch it. Craig
