A few more fish

My daughter ran two back to back charters today starting at 4am. Seeing people catching yellowtail kingfish all day was starting to get to her, so she called me up to meet her at the boat ramp after she'd finished work with our boat this evening. Having micro jigged some good snapper a few days ago she was more keen on getting in the water to hunt down her prey rather than do the rod and line thing.

She only took two shots, first was on a good sized bonito and the second on this hefty yellow tail. Scratched out a few eastern rock lobsters. No hassel from seals or sharks today which was nice for a change.

I'm assuming / hoping his daughter is only 8" tall (200mm if you struggle with christian units).

That is amazing.

Or the fish is up close to the camera & she's 20 feet further back!

Nice catch.

I think you might be looking at the 'urban dictionary' definition of touche which is definitely NOT what I meant

Touche (Urban Dictionary) - Other persons better thinking just verbally slapped you. Used sarcastically to indicate that one is unable to argue against another's absurd logic, or a witty point.

Touche (traditional) - used as an acknowledgement during a discussion of a good or clever point made at one's expense by another person.

I apologise for ruining the thread with my initial puerile response.
