[Brighton Bomber]

Hello all you fishos

Question: Can anyone tell me what is the real sizes of a pinky and a snapper

People says under 40cm is pinky and over 40cm is a snapper is this true :?:

Have your say

See you at Brighton :wave2: :gone:

Depends if someone else catches its a pinkie , if I catch its a Red or Snapper

I'd say +40cm is a snapper that's what the fishing guide says

40+ snapper and 80+ Big Red!

I am of the same opinion as most. Under 40cm is a pinky, over 40cm is a snapper. Yeah, once you get to 80cm territory it's a big red. What's a horse, 90cm+.

I think somewhere around 48-50cm. They lose the really juvenile look and start to take on the more adult snapper looks.
