Top Job Sam, seems like theres plenty to be had, had alot of reports of people getting plenty, some days it must be too easy.

Nice Sam, if he came from any depth he more than likely would have swam off and died anyway.

Yeh John, i have released them before that size and they go off fine, but mostly are lip hooked.

Plus this thing was turbo charged and ran it's self raggered....had the calcutta 400 singing like a bird.

Yeah a lot of them swim off well but are found dead several days later. Especially those fish that come from Mossies/Blackwall.

Swan Mulla!

Nice fish Sam....congrats!

I do agree with Big John, the deep water mulla over 10m have a very low survival so yeh purely catch & keep for me!

Most i have heard caught

Sun, 2008-11-30 08:08

Most i have heard caught lately are around the 15-16 kg mark,either people arent putting pics of the smaller ones up or theres heaps of mulla that size in the river.

I would love to get a 20 kg plus on the kayak Cool
