Interesting catch - went down to the mole last night to chase some mulloway along with 500 other anglers. Saw one get caught by the group next to us, a decent fish of about 1m. Heaps of other mulloway and pink snapper landed over the night. Then at about 1am my two mates who I was fishing with decided to walk a couple hundred meters up to the tip to see what was going on up there. 2 minutes later, one of our 6 set baits goes off, I scrambled to get to the rod before the reel got spooled. Got there and it was on, big thumping runs, rod bouncing all over the place - a real battle, and I was on my own! The fish ran straight right down the groin straight into our other rods, making a huge tangle, after a spirited battle I got the monster to the rocks and managed to catch my breath and get my phone out of my pocket and call my mates, luckily they weren't far away. Pretty disappointed to see this big dirty Sambo surface! not a mulloway! but a good fish off the stones none the less. Not sure how big it was but estimated at 20kg +

The fish got smashed up on the rocks quite badly, and it was decided to keep the fish for a friend who doesn't mind eating questionable fish. Ended up giving the Sambo to some young guys who were over the moon to take the fish.

No Mulloway and Pink snapper... But a Landbased Sambo that will probably never be beat.
