am loving the photo of the tarpon on the august f&b,
i had a session at murrays one morning a while back, i got about a dozen tarpon about that big on 4pound spin gear, great fight and great fun, was shatterd i didnt have fly tackle with me.

shame we dont have them in oz .like the beasts in the florida keys.
wouldnt that be nice,

Thanks for the feedback Chris.
The August cover is a little different but I think the colours go really well together which is the main reason I chose it.

The September cover is also a little different and I don't recall the particular species ever being on the cover of Fish and Boat before. I could be wrong.

Hmm yes I really liked the cover. The good quality image, the nice background, seeing the fly rod and a nice fish makes a good cover. I hope to see more interesting covers. Definitely woulda drawn me in if I didn't already read F &B

baited breath, thats funny,

Adam Royle · 08-10-2008, 08:39 PM

Maybe we should all have a stab at what fish it will be?

For those who may already know it will just have to be a gentlemen's agreement that they forfeit their guess (obviously Ant you're out!!!!).

What haven't we had yet (A Barra maybe Tongue

)???????

Fresh or Salt..........I'll go Salt.

Ant's always looking for something unique or colourful so I'll go colourful with only a dash of unique and say......a.......TUSKFISH!

Catch Ya! Cool

Hi Adam,
Great idea to guess the next cover. I will start by saying that your guess is not correct. There are only two people who know what the next cover will be and one of them does not use the forum so I am pretty safe in knowing that all guesses will be just that.

Good luck.

Remember, I said, to my knowledge this fish has not appeared on a front cover before. I could be wrong. It definitely has not been on the cover in my time.

Hi Ed. Ant dont tell me your going to use a shot of a toadie on the cover! Ha de ha ha
