Record
Looks like you have caught yourself a record, the WA record is 1.856kg and the Aust is 2.3kg according to the AAA [Aust Anglers Association].
Not srue on how you go about registering it but no doubt someone on the site will.

Caught one 600mm just after
Caught one 600mm just after easter and could hardly get my big mitt around it's head so that is an absolute ball tearer.And on these bloody soft plastics i keep hearing about. Sorry guys but I'm an old school bait man. Well done buddy.
Love the West!

more than bricks
Good to see the fish finally, excellent size, to qualify as an Aus record you need to be a member of either ANSA or IGFA and also use approved rigs,line and send in line for testing and pics as well as fish being weighed on certified scales.
