Jackson is one of our home owners sons. Jo and Steve are the owners of ’Marlin’. They LOVE to fish, and so does Jackson. Their other son Tyson is in charge of ’keeping them real’. Happy just to eat the fish. Well done Jackson.
The information below was emailed to me by his proud Mum.
Please find attached photo of Jackson Tatham, age 8, with his pending State, Australian and World small fry record of a 3.9kg Tuna Kawa Kawa (more commonly known as a ‘Mack Tuna’ on 3kg fishing line.
It was caught in the Exmouth Gulf on Friday 8th October from a 4.2m dinghy after a relatively easy fight of approx 15mins.
A big thankyou to Kurt Decker, weighmaster for EGFC, for making himself available to weigh and complete the necessary paperwork needed to submit for records and to his wife, Jo Decker, for her fabulous picture taking.
