Yo carl1010_1 - did that get you sorted on how to post pictures to the forum?

Looking forward to seeing the photos. Posting them on here is one of those things that takes less time to do than to explain the 'how to'.

 

If you don't already have an account with www.photobucket.com you really should open one. The basic account is free and easy to use.

Nice tope Carl - BUT, please handle them with more care - that guard rail has done a load of damage to the internal ogrgans. You won't see it in the way the fish swims off as she probably went away strongly - but many die days later due to poor handling and internal damage that the anglr simply doesn't know he has done.

 

The internal organs can even be damaged in a heavy fish by the belly becoming too distended - get one arm under th fish to support the belly if you can. Not easy, I know (you want to try it while sitting on a kayak in a swell) but it is important.

 

I hope you don't think I am having a go - I am not. I am just trying to improve the conservation aspect of our sport. It is something I am quite involved with.

Good luck with the rest of the season - hope you get a 70lb er!
