Hi all
Here's a pic of a nice lizard which I trolled up on the weekend. It was taken on a 20+ Scalerazza while deep trolling some rocky bottom for estuary cod. It put on quite a performance and had me fooled into thinking that I had hooked a nice sized cod before it surfaced.
Size wise, that's a 70 litre long esky, and it went corner to corner. On the measure it made roughly 85cm. Weight wise, I estimate around the 5 kilo mark as it was very thick through the body. Sorry the pic doesn't really show it the best but I was fishing on my own and it is hard to get good pics of a fish like this when you are trying to release it in good condition. All I could do was snap a couple of quick shots and then put her back.
A nice fish!
