Ive been missing for a while fellas.
Between getting smashed at work and starting my new company theres been limited time for the computer.
BUT, i did sneak out all weekend for my monthly comp.
We did get about 10 Snapper, nothing massive.
But bugger all about that, back at the ramp my mate pulls up saying he got a thumper.
I asked "what, 5-6 kg"?
"Closer to 8 kg mate"!
Couldnt have happened to a nicer guy.

Never seen one that big with my own eyes.
Another guy from the club got one just under 12 kg 2 seasons ago but i never got a looky.

It was weighed 8.3 kg uncleaned and 7.01 kg cleaned.
That esky its in is one very long esky.
Enjoy, i did....

Not a bad fushy @ all

How long was it, my guess is just under 3 milk crates

That's a South Aus version Phil... Very nice.

Yours wont be too far away mate

Noice. I really need to get out more Now if I can only remember the marks of the little reef we found off Pt Hacking. The land marks are gone :( The price of progress...... no more chimney stacks - the house with the red roof is gone - the three pines are gone.... A search with the sounder and gps will be the only way now.

that's one hell of a fish, to bad its not yours salty. you will have to go back out and try for a bigger one.
