well a cousin managed 2 salmon today, 1 legal the other foulhooked- said it took him half an hour to land and release and was about 16lb. the other was 10lb, thats 4 fish hes hooked in the last 4 days. he also released a 12lb legal caught fish the other day. uses a lot lighter line than me and not the usual terminal gear. haven’t heard of anything else apart from some fish seen at the banana hole and a couple caught there thursday.
