Battle on the beach

Got a chance for a beach session today. Started off very quiet until my line started peeling out.  With about an hour back and forth I finally had this beast on the waters edge and thankfully had another fisho give me a hand getting it out of the water to remove the hook and a quick pic.

Ended with 2 small sharks and 2 queenie.

 Nice catch, the saw would look good in the shed but not the done thing these days I guess.
