Henry went fishing

OK .... here is the evidence - this fish won the fishin' competition at Dundee 
(25 minutes by light plane SW of Darwin) recently.
Measured 93 cm.....was released, of course.

Cheers and beers,

Henry B

  1. Looks like the same fish to me!!!!!.....(same number of scales in third row from gill to tail???)
    O.H.& S would be -pleased with the headgear....certainly would not have been seen in the Territory in the '60's - maybe that is why many of us diarise regular visits to the Doctors to have sun cancers burnt off!!!!

  2. I agree Rod - it is definitely the same fish - different angles and aspects. We still do not know who really caught it either. Anyone can hold up a tidgy barra like that!!

  5. Nah! I think it is a different fish. Henry said it IS!!!! Still the Lawrence of Arabia headgear is pretty stunning! It's a wonder there were any fish around if they looked up and saw that headgear! I bet the crocs high-tailed it out of the range of Henry MacB. aka Lawrence of A.
    Great work Henry.

    Cheers and beers

  6. Actually, Colin, we learnt on our Kimberly tour that crocs like the colour orange, especially orange life jackets.
    Good one Henry

    Are you suggesting that Henry was a likely candidate for a crocodile?
    You should have warned Henry of this possibility! Naughty you. Imagine a World without Henry???????????
