Here's a 118cm Mack that my eldest lad Riley caught around the SW Vernon on 21st September last year. Haven't had a chance to get out ther this dry been a bit too windy and the Gunn Point road looks like it's eating trailers and spitting them out. I'll try again at the end August or in September. There was a tender in last Wednesdays paper for gravelling and repair of the road so hopefully it's not too far away and we'll have an improved road - just got to keep the hoons from ripping it up.
This is the First Mack that Riley has ever caught and is the largest landed in my boat. He caught it using a Red/White Halco Laser. I've got to try and out do him this year.

Caught this sucker in january, in the Gulf. Had been dragging behind the stern for quite a while before i noticed :bonk:

. That's why its jaws are half way out of its head :lol:

, which helped it stretch out to 130cm :grin:

roughly 17kg :-?

Nice mack but I think 17kg might be a little short of the mark Seeker.
:roll:

Nice and fat so im guessing aroound the 12-13kg mark. :wink:

Thats what this one went(cant remember exactly). Tiwi fish seem to be longer and leaner though. :cheers:

And here is one of Harmsey from the same trip. Caught on a baitcaster if my memory serves correctly. :cheers:
