Default Catch from the 200 fathom cliffs

Shame these are not eligible for the comp but it sure was fun. Pics show results from a short session at 200 fathoms in Northern NSW Australia. All caught on live yellowtail and manual wind gear. Ken on left and me. The three biggest were 30, 34 and 40kg. Current was raging at 4.7 miles but fortunately mainly top current so we were able to fish with 6lb of lead by motoring into it. The fish in the big ones mouth is an 11kg blue eye trevalla to show just what a bucket mouth Bass Groper [ wreckfish ] are. The others are two gemfish and a nanygai.
