Cheers mate,

Yeah it bottomed out my 22kg scales with absolute ease so we est its weight over the 25kg mark. It was about 1.2m long I think so to say the least I was pretty pleased and to catch it off Hillarys is even more satisfying

Far Out

Off Hillaries!  That makes it an even better catch, you must have some secret spots that not to many people know about to get one like that..  We have been fishing out of there and Ocean Reef for years and can't really seem to break the 13-14kg mark..  Thats gold mate, congrats.

Yeah it was a long time coming for me as the best before that was 15kg off scarborough quite a few years back.

I have quite a few more photos that I will eventually get round to posting up from esperance to onslow.

Yeah mate I take matty out quite a bit. Known him for quite a while now (from uni) and was there when he got his  big dhu. We will have to organise a day out on the water soon with all of us, couple of boats, few mates some beer and hopefully some fish, you cant beat that
