Good one. Must be lip hooked. I also caught 1 of 95cm from St kilda beach 2 years ago, 1/4 oz jig 1/0 hook, 10lb leader. You should be able to find the report here.

I got busted at least 2 x since then.

This bath shot beats all your sink shots FC lol.

Yes it was lip hooked. On a 1/6 oz TT jig 1/0 hook.

Well done Kasper great effort on light gear.

I take it these weren't the target species? Learning from this it would be worth casting out some live mullet in this area knowing that they are lurking in the depth and upping the tackle a little to avoid breakages in the future.

Outstanding effort mate, I hope the Mrs is happy to have fish juice all over hew bathroom floor? Well done

Haha, thanks mate. She was more taken by the smell of the fish than the mess i made luckily

Jewie does not stink. It has no slime. Not unless you have a nose of a greyhound, you will barely notice someone is gutting a jewie next to you.

Nice eating fish. Never dries when fried.

Makes sense! We will always learn something, often by making a mistake and losing the fish....but not this time!!!! Spectacular effort!!!!!!!!

Definitely a great effort Jim. Unexpected surprise could result in more captures much the same.

What an amazing result - well done! I've been working on a building project all this year, but this is really making me want to get out and chase them again ...
