so that would make it about 5 1/2 foot. not a bad size  . light coloring too. well done

looks like its half cooked already.

It wasnt bled, had a pretty nice slit in the gob and blood was goin everywhere as is, i didnt have the space to cut it up coz car was full, so instead of messing the car, i decided not the de-fin and de-tail him. the pink is where the blood is just gathering. I actually transported it rope tied and leader tied on top of my spare tyre on the tailgate. you wouldnt believe the comments and looks i got while driving, going to the atm and the servo. hahahaha

the one i got was just over 5 1/2 foot too. yeah transported mine on the roof of the stationwagon wrapped in tarp and tied on to the racks. some real dirty looks on the way home hahahah

? wondered are they eatable? i have always put them back

in my opinion, they taste better than most other fish and sharks ive tried. a bit of garlic, lemon and herbs and its a top feed. you get a LOT of meat off them aswell. totally worth keeping one

I caught a big one up at wedge kept it cos gaff went  through the gills and wouldnt swim back out cooked up really well

You could've at least used a 'spade'.

<<<<------------ See?  Now I'm 6'4".  Fun to catch, aren't they?  This one was eventually released after a half-hours swimming around; we had no facilities for keeping it!
