Yes thats right i caught a 10kg jewie with my bare hands while we were out for a surf off wambi this morning . I noticed him swimming below me (okay sure he wasnt 100% as he had a squid and a 10 o hook caught in his throat) so i got above him and dived down and grabbed him first by the tail then gilled him and dragged him onto my board. It was really funny as 2 mal riders and another SUP rider were there and seen it happen and couldnt believe it. Mark from E.S.S (erina sail and ski) towed it in and dragged it up the beach and was glad to get the above photo with the catch. By the way Mark had done 50 push ups before the photo to pump up a bit. ( Okay he tried to do 50 but managed 5,and they were off the knee type)

Hey everyone - SORRY I HAVE LEFT OUT SOME IMPORTANT INFO .
Mark has just informed me - he dragged the jewie into the beach on his new 9' Jimmy Lewis which rips he reckons. Not as good as the initimidator 8'8 though I reckon.

What a great story. They are my favourite table fish. Never caught one myself, but my brother catches a few and collects the jewles that you find in their heads. That piece of meat in their cheeks tastes just like lobster.
