What rod and reel were you using mate?

@bigtomo69er

Gday Mate - cheers for your kind comments , i agree these big girls are so precious for our estuaries we have a boat rule anything over 60 cm goes back ..

In this video i was using Shimano Tcurves with Stella 2500 but now i have switched to NITRO tournament rods they are a beautiful rod to use - i use the Distance Spin & Vapor 7 ft with the same reels ... Cheers again mate

Good to see how much respect you had for that big girl. Can't be stressed enough how important those big mummas are for the fishery
