Excellent fish story there Mike. I love the photos that tell it all in glorious colour, fish-flesh and all. Thanks for sharing.

PS. Just curious, but, how did it taste? Ah, don't bother, I think I know.

Delicious!!

Persistence pays off! Well done bud!

You also unfairly made me hungry at 3:15 in the afternoon.
