The derby will be taken with a fish below 35 by the sounds of it. When these fish went through the charlottes earlier in the season the avg. was 22 to 25 lb. Just one of those years I guess. It seemed like most of the fish were 4 yr olds. on the north coast. Nothing wrong with that though, a fresh open ocean 25 lb. fish had no problems taking 100 yd. runs.-cheers-dirty

ya i definately have no complaints about the fights of these fish. when i was at poetts noook last week (fishing was awesome we got 12 springs in 2 afternoons) i had one spring about 22 pounds that jumped 10 times before throwing the hook on the last jump. never had one jump like that on me.
