BCF TEAM MEMBER LANDS MONSTER TREVALLY ON FRASER ISLAND
It has always been said that the BCF team live and breathe their brand, and after a team member
landed a massive 30lb Giant Trevally off the beach at Fraser Island last weekend it has been
proven!
BCF Training Co-ordinator and Support Office team member Justin Willmer was on a boys fishing
trip when he hooked a fish most surf anglers only dream about.
"The fish absolutely smashed my metal lure and immediately went on a screaming run which had
me chasing it down the beach trying not to lose all my line," Justin said.
"After the initial run I was thinking mackerel or kingfish, but the fight went for too long and when I
finally landed it I couldn't believe the size of the GT."
Justin has been a member of the BCF team for over five years and says fishing is his passion.
"I love fishing as a sport, working out the conditions, selecting the right location and choosing the
right lure or bait. I'd love to say landing this fish was all skill but there was also a lot of luck
involved. Sometimes you need a bit of luck as a fisherman."
"Catching a big Trevally from the beach is somewhat of a holy grail for beach anglers and I'm just
stoked that I got an opportunity and actually landed the fish. I must admit it's good to have a few
bragging rights among my colleagues at work as well!
"As Queenslanders, we're lucky to have so many great beaches on our doorstep and it just goes
to show that anything can happen when you're beach fishing."
Launched in October 2005, BCF currently has 71 stores located in Queensland, New South
Wales, ACT, Northern Territory, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia and is proud to be
