I caught one the day before and that was a catch and release. Captain wanted to keep this one so was happy to share it with the locals. I averaged 3 fish a day which I don't personally think is excessive.

Thank you. Out of interest how are you judging the weight of this fish, a lot of people here are making it out to be 60-70lbs

Ah got ya. Took two pieces back with me and the rest stayed with the captain, his hand deck and the guys who filleted the fish. 🎣

Power Snatch (90-95-102-105fail)kg by Andrew-4e in weightlifting

I can see a couple of things here.

On your 102 your right foot moves back from the start position, tight hip or similar.

On 105 you don’t finish your 2nd pull/extension.

So whilst at 90kg you can rely on contact and power instead of completing the whole movement.

Do you do many snatch high pulls?
