Congratulations to Mark Totzke on a decent rig—lemon fish—from Canterbury, and thanks for sharing the photo! Rig are a favourite target for plenty of kiwi anglers, and this one is a nicely conditioned fish with the pale belly and white-spotted grey-brown back these sharks are known for. Good on you for getting out there and putting a solid one on the sand, Mark—here's to the next one.

Nice one Mark, thanks for posting this rig—how did it fight on the gear you were using, and did it make it to the table?

it was caught drone fishing about 350m out from the beach, used an electric reel. It did put up a good fight even on that heavy gear. It did make it to the table :) Although next time I will release a bigger one like this. For eating the smaller ones are definitely a better choice.
