9.8kg Golden Snapper from Darwin harbour!
as temping as it wass to go to the beer can regatta. we had a swim last Sunday in the channel(no current on those tides).
BIG snapper to 9.8kg's made it into the boat. even the small ones were big.
i know your gonna ask so......find the deepest section of the channel just wide of the sandbar, locate bombies or ridges on the sounder and drop a line there.

Just look for the big deep hole where all the sh....t settles after coming from the sewerage outlets. Just follow the paper trail

Re: 9.8kg Golden Snapper from Darwin harbour!
Saw another photo of the fish being held. Is a very good size fish! Heard it was the NT spear fishing record?
Didnt get a lenght of it did you? Would be interested to put a lenght to weight for the memory bank as i havent weighed one for years and only take length measurements now days.

Great fish - don't know that i'd want to actually get in the water to get it though.
I used to have a handle on life.......then it broke.

Nice Goldie!
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!
Especially when you can see them!
