Australian Photo's

[Jay Murakoshi]

Well, I'm going to try it again and see if I can get some photo's out to you guys.
One photo is a Diamond trevally caught on the flats. Notice how deep we are wading and that's with some sharks swimming around ya. Worried more about the crocs.

Another photo is a Indo Pacific permit. This permit was a 17lber. but there were larger ones in the school. We did see schools of at least 200 permit almost daily some schools were smaller - say 50/60

Also, attached is a photo of a decent size golden trevally caught in 3' of water. Hard pulling, long running fish

The last photo is someone with a bad attitude. I shot this about 50' away.
He really didn't want his photo taken. He was hissing and pissed off that we came that close. He is about 15' and we saw much larger ones further up the river

If you like these and want to see a few more, I hopefully will get some up on the site.

I do have a photo of a 18' milk fish. Something that is rare on a fly.

Enjoy

Jay

Thanks for the great photos Jay.

Maybe some time this winter you can come by the shop and do a slide show on Australia?

[Jay Murakoshi]

Bill,

I'd be glad to do an Australian show for the shop. Just let me know the date and we can go from there. No more trips until next year due to knee surgery next week.

"... do have a photo of a 18' milk fish...

18 foot milkfish! No way amigo. :D Of course I know you meant something else. Maybe 18 pounds???? Maybe 18 inches????

Cool shots, the Golden T looks like a fun catch. "Ol' smiles" the croc has a set of chompers on him!!!!!!
Cheers, Ken
