Early morning fishing on the waikato river before starting work. First eel caught was about 6lb and real good eating size. Threw the bait in for one more and I ended hooking this one. Its the biggest I have ever caught. 22lb! Talking with some of the other guys there was a 26lb caught a couple of years ago.

Bro, it was the original after school set up my Pappy showed me. 100lb nylon, tied off to 1/2" thick hemp rope, tied off to a tree!
Hook was a 8/0 live baiting hook, bait was some meat I scored from a bakery on the way to work.
