3 of us fishing around the Repulse groop of islands a while back. young lady with her first slatey bream.Or sometimes called mother inlaw fish.

That young lady must be on the camera. Yes?

Why do you it call it the Mother inlaw fish.

This is what we call the mother inlaw fish. It might be because it allways has its moth open or the Venomous dorsal fin spines.

They are called mother in law fish, because they are the ones you give to her, due to their high (haha I'm fibbing) rating as a table fish.

I took fillets off one while I was up there a few weeks back, and cooked them within a couple of hours. They were delicious, as is the red rock cod you have pictured. Another name for the red rock cod, is poor man's lobster.

She is holding the fish

Ooooops. She has got guys shorts on. Is my face red?

Nice fish.

that top look very full to me kkw

was that all the fish u got phil, and how far out are the islands, could i get to them with the 4.1???????? :o :o :o

Are you sure Phil ????????????

Some of the Mother-in-laws I've seen have moustache's & the person L/H side looks pretty suz to me , not Merv Hughes but close enough

I have tears running down my eyes

On the day Polly we got a mixed bag of sweetlip,mackrel,slatey bream and parrot.The islands are 18ks out and take around 25min on a flat day. you would get out no worrys.Ive even seen little tinnys out there. South Repulse is a really pretty spot with a top beach and sheltered bays.The 3 islands are all national park.Coral trout are also in the area.

Hey Phil how about posting a pic of yourself so if I ever see you on the water I can wave to you

To many plastic boats on the water these days & I may be waving to the wrong Phil

That's Phil next to the girl. On his best behaviour - he has clothes on

kk stop telling porky's

You told me Phil's only clothing are his Mankini's & you even bribed me with 1 dozen Mango's to give him that title

Heres a mixed bag.Maybe a new comp? Name the fish

Talking about mangos, go well with prawns

Stuff the Mango's Phil !

Send me down some of those PRAWNS & I'll give you any title your heart desires

PS] Mate I edited your post & fixed up the size option

Very easy what you must do is have the text in between the 2 opposing brackets you'll see what I mean when you click edit

thanks mate, sounds great and hope to get up there in the next couple of years

the bannana boat would be right at home!!

Could have a day of Poly's on the water, with prawns and mangos!!

Ill bring the garbage bags!

Is Sumo coming to dinner??

Yes kk !

Phil said he was going to save the prawn heads for SUMO

Does that mean you are not a ploy owner.

i fear he is not Christos,the poor man is a bit boat challenged at the moment, but i sure he will take a look when he is ready to buy

Our yellow boats are really ruling the site.Plastic boats,bait ,buckets and even trailers, wot more would you want

A Real Boat

And Real Food

Didn't see you eating plastic mango's & prawns why should we

only if the boats are yellow j.g, i would repaint yours j g so it looks wright if i were you.

Cant do that poly !

People will think I'm one of those Happy Chappy's from you know where
