I was extremely ill on this fishing trip - just released from hospital
After catching this 13 kgs (28.6 lbs) reef fish off Cairns, I was vomiting like never before. I should not have gone.

Glad to hear of your recovery, by the way, that's an absolutely nice sized red emperor, I have only caught smaller one, I envy you. :)(y)

Painted Cray, yum...

So glad you survived! Did you get well enough soon to eat that tasty looking fish?
 
I love to fish, but it isn't much fun when sick. Beautiful fish. Hope you feel lots better.

Both catches look tasty...yum !

Hope you´re feeling better .
 
This crayfish was caught by a Torres Strait Islander (Aborigine from TI) working as a cray diver.
There’s no way I would be going diving.
 
Ridge walker asked if the Red Emperor reef fish was nice to eat.
Let’s say you’d kill for it![emoji15]
Reef fish cone in two tastes - delicious and more delicious.
You should all plan a Great Barrier Reef fishing trip at least once in your life,

Yes a painted cray.
One thing about living in the far north east of Australia is the quality of the fish.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
