THE guys at Hervey Bay Fly and Sportfishing contacted Fisho this week to report of another impressive catch taken by one of their sportfishing clients.
The Spanish mackerel pictured was caught by bream tournament fisher Scott Butler using a 5-inch Z-Man Grub soft plastic on a spin outfit, 20lb braid line and 20lb fluro leader.
Amazingly, the Spaniard’s sharp teeth somehow avoided snipping the leader.
“The jig head was just sticking out its mouth, lucky capture,” guide Andrew Chorley told Fisho.
The impressive Spaniard measured just over 1.6m long and is definitely one fine catch!
