Self-confessed "obsessed kayak fisho" Chris Howell caught this 29.5kg, 140cm Jew on Fri 10/9/04 out from Redcliffe. "The Jew ate a Squidgy Finesse #4 hook!, 1.5 gram jig head, rigged with a Berkeley blue pearl 3" Bass Minnow, and was caught on 10lb fireline, 20lb mono wind on leader, on a Sabre 120 (classic) with an Okuma Fina FA 30 reel. She took an hour to get to the boat, then another 1.5 hours to tow her back to shore (one handed) on the lip grippers as I couldn't lift her into the kayak." Chris' kayak is a Perception "Minnow 2" rigged for trolling and lure casting. |
