Pran, if I was a politician I would have said that it was a marvellous fish and I couldn`t possibly demean it by trying to ascribe a weight.
- In other words: "I don`t know and am not going to embarrass myself by suggesting a weight that I haven`t a clue about".
But then, you know that......and probably wrote the .script !

LOL.
Ok, the previous fish looks bigger - in better condition certainly. So how about 3.5 kg for the latest. Certainly a lot heavier than my initial estimate.
Well, the truth is that I do not own a weighing scale.
However, in my estimate, Saturday's murral is about 3.5 kgs, though the ghillie reckoned that it was probably 4 kgs.
Hey Grumpy! You finally got
something right. Now go to bed!

My guess was good too

Approx 3 kilos should be more like it
Rusty, I have just the ticket for cold ones! Got myself a 12 volt thermoelectric cooler for the Bolero. Holds about nine cans of beer, coke etc. Runs off the cigarette lighter socket and cools or heats depending on the setting you choose.

Haven't given it a proper test yet, will let you know how it performs.
Cheers

I've got a similar set up for my Bolero also. I just haven't used it much. But it used to work very well.
