Good shot!

This pic is only small on my phone but it looks like you only just got him if that's the spear hole just in front of his dorsal fin. Great shooting anyway! I've seen heaps when I used to dive around Augusta and Hamlin Bay but never that big! Well done again!

that is an impressive beast!
Im curious, how far up the west coast have they been caught by others?
We had one in a craypot near the Beagle Islands once, only time I can ever remember catching or seeing one.
