I grabbed my old Krico .22 a few Winny power points jumped on the quad and took off down to the creek,first spot realised sfa so i went 1/2 mile downstream to where the big fat one was seen previously and voila!
After a bit of sneaking along the bank (uncomfortably in waist high feed) I sprung a pair,bang ! rolled! the fat pigs mate swam to it and it copped one also. After trying to get across the creek I saw another and banged that bastard too,it was in deep water so it can stay there!
The fat pig is a real porker too,check the guts on it,no doubt full of milt or eggs and go`s 770mm without having someone hold it out to its true length. 770mm is around 30.5 inches.

Holy crap those are some big fish! How do they taste? When I was a kid we used to shoot fish at my Aunt's house with my Dad. Those were always good times.

I took `em down to the bush paddock and dropped them there for the foxes and eagles and threw some of the eggs on a meat ants nest ..all gone too!
