A Big Snodger!!

At least that's what Brendan calls it!

A brilliant day in the open waters off the Gold Coast began with having two humpback whales surface within 50 feet of the boat, much to the delight of everybody on board (Brendan, Brian, Bill, Caleb & Griffin). Shortly after the excitement had died down, Brian hooked the first catch of the day, and was feeling pretty smug. It wasn't more than ten mintutes later, when Griffin's rod took a sharp curl towards the water and we all realized he had something significant on his line. With Brendan holding the rod, Griffin reeled for fifteen minutes, hauling in a 21 pound Amberjack. The squeals and cheers could be heard for miles...as Griffin realized just how big the fish actually was!
