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

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
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
