Cheers Russ & Sandy. Will have to plan a camping trip south after Easter.

Only took about 10 mins to land...wasn't far off shore. Bout 10 mtrs!!!! The mate I was fishing with had one on also, but the hooks came out on shore, and a wave washed him back out. About the same size as mine too.

never bothered with wobby's. a bitch to prepare and theres a lot nicer tasting sharks out there. saying that, thats a nice wobby and youll get plenty of meat off it. good work! the tailor arent really that big landbased metro atm, but last month they were. head up to kalbarri for bigggggg landbased tailor and the like. good luck :)
