[ Ссылка ] Check out this beautiful Coronation Trout, very large for these coral trout and quite a rare catch. We go this one out wide on the Hardline, 200 Kilometres offshore from Mackay. In 10 years I've never caught one in close, but this day we caught three coronation trout, unbelievalbe. This was the largest Coronation trout, and phenomenal colours really made my day. Just amazing colours and one of the prettiest fish we've caught. The other two were undersized fish and released to catch again another day hopefully.
This is a highly prized reef fish and one of best you'll catch with Red Emperor and normal coral trout. They have a yellow lined caudal fin which helps distinguish them. Other names are Lunar-tailed cod or fairy cod. They grow up to 15 lbs or 7 Kg which would be an exceptional sized fish. this one was a beauty and I'd say a large specimen for this species. Good luck and hope you're lucky enough to catch one on the Great Barrier Reef.
Book early as these are limited mothershipping charters and almost full for this year for Sept and November, only a couple of spaces left for the best reef fishing on the Great Barrier Reef. I Can't wait to get out on these remote reefs on the Hardline. See if we can catch a few more Coronation Trout. We have the full series, 4 parts on this amazing Mothershipping fishing adventure recently posted.
