Yeh ben
Cheers. Was more solid than the usual. Didnt weigh it but my PB is 28kg, and this wasnt close. Best guess early 20s but a solid well fed speci. Wont tell you what was in its full gut, but it was a seafood extravaganza.
Caught on Monster Mesh and Saltist LD302S (when they were still silver).

You can see the thickness
You can see the thickness across the middle there, looks about the same length as the one Kris has in the latest image, but the difference is in the girth.
Tasty stuff!

Cheers
Was a surprise that time off day. Its a spot with a nasty spinner shark that always destroy our tackle, and then bloody jump to say up yours. So I was trying to hook that one with gear that would at least give me a chance. Bloody shark knows to only eat the Fluoro leader baits. When the mack took off I was high on adrenaline thinking "got you" but realised very quickly it was a mack (swim like sh*t towards the boat).
Not complaining, but I am going to get that spinner, and if it gets sharked, I'll be thinking revenge is sweet.
