Yellow

Hey buddy. It's a plaesure. What's the use of catching a fish and not sharing it. The big Yellow weighed in at 17.38kg! It's my PB! The yellow was just to big to take a better photo. Its tail kept on bending back! From bottom lip to the start of the tail was measured at 930mm... I only used a 7feet shimano rod so was a hectic fight!

Now I'm logged in at your sight! Will share my pics!
Have a good one buddy!
