Submitted by beeroclock on Tue, 2022-02-15 14:43
Hi all just wanting to have a bit of a brag ha ha. Pulled this big fella up from 90m NW of two rocks. Fought like a train all the way to the top. Thought it was a shark when first felt him. Went 86cm on the mat, didnt get a weight, got two big fat fillet slabs off it. Had a quick look online their max size is 98cm. Have got a few in the past but nothing close to this size cheers boys! brag over

Coral Lumps
Great fish and good eating. A lot of people cut the brown stripe off its shoulder but I don't bother as it makes no difference to their eating quality
Get a lot of them SW of the Coral Lumps 10nm NW of Cape Naturaliste, lot of broken bottom right out to nwhere it starts to drop off
