Lord Have Mercy! SPRO BBZ-1 Rat 50 vs Monster Murray Cod

Hey Bill.

This fish was caught by my brother Tim Parsons at a my local fishery split rock dam last year just before day break. It measured in at 107cm(a bit over 42") and was estimated to have weighed 45lbs+. In Australia the murray cod is an iconic sports fish and the ultimate goal of any dedicated angler is to catch one that measures 100cm long (the "meterey"!). Tim as a avid angler that has dedicated a massive amount of his life to targeting these legendary giants and his hard work paid off when he nailed this beast which is only his 2nd 1M+ fish in more than 11 years of chasing murray cod. The impoundment this fish was caught from is one of the toughest fisheries in the country so not only did he catch this giant on a Spro BBZ-1 Rat 50 but he did it in one of the hardest places to do so, making this particular fish all the more incredible as a trophy capture. A moment he will remember for the rest of his life and an amazing achievement that i consider the catch of the year from 2016. Thanks bill
 

There is another species you can add to that massive list for SPRO BBZ-1 Rats. This is a golden perch.(a very unusually dark coloured golden perch)
