Brimmer 220 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Must admit, it does look a little worse for wear. Managed to get off the mark last year in the IOM from the shore. Tope are awesome and deserve every bit of respect, and should be returned as soon as. I had three, and these are my mates. These were caught over 3 tides, hit at the right time. Went back in early September, weather was against us and didn't get one between us. Tope are something else, never had a fish that can pull you towards the water before with electrifying speed.

nelson1 1 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Good pic's Mate, Nice clean fish no blood you no what your doing they are great to catch strong fighting fish, well in Quote Link to post
Brimmer 220 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 One of them has a slight bit, but it was hooked a bit further than the jaw. It was carefully removed with the pliers, but it still went back like a rocket. Quote Link to post
