Finally after a fishless Jackoff and two fishless outings I cracked a season opener. It's been hard work and I hope things improve, last year was a disappointment and this years started out the same. One other pup also caught and I got shredded by a monster to keep me going back.

I reckon you're just bloody greedy mate.
That looks like a once in a lifetime fish to me, and you're not happy with one in a season?
;-)
Awesome work Mr Dids...well deserved..
Bait, my god you really wanted that fish mate!
Very nice Jack Did's,well deserved keep at em mate..

Good stuff Did's, North or South?

South John, new spot, but not too far from "old spot"
cmon dids it doesnt count if it aint caught on a lure :11_002:
I no what you mean tho- I've been gettin smoked nearly every session by them it's doin my head in mate Im gonna have try somethin different instead of locked drag no drag- nice fishie too mate nothin beats the jacks
Great fish Mr Dids.
Well deserved and a bloody nice specimen too.
Pete
great season opener dids,gotts be happy with that.have you worked it out in dollar terms lol.mine was about $10,000 by the time i got my first one;)
Now that is a question I'd don't want to give to much thought too. As you say the first one cost a fortune, $10000, that's not out of the question. After that they do get cheaper, but still in the hundreds/ fish. And then we release them:rolleyes:.Quote:

Jacks are cheap as chips when compared with Billfish...and my boat is only 14.5 feet- Imagine the price per marlin on a 60 footer!Quote:

Great fish Dids that will keep you smiling until your next jack outing. Cheers Selfy
On ya dids, way to go. That's a good size too.
Geez, 4 pages Dids, it HAS been a while since you caught a fish
Well done mate, that's a whopper! Gotta be happy with that catch
It's a bit like that these days B, but don't worry the seasons not over yet, I think I'm still a possibility of another one before winter.Quote:
