Grunter

[Matt Flynn]

What's the biggest grunter you have caught in NT waters? The biggest I have seen was 2.5kg (weighed) out of Sadgroves Creek, caught by Wayne Clancy.

the best grunter I have caught now is from the mouth of the south alligator, some real stonkers down there with a few over 60cm

Havent got any pics but the brother in law hits the mouth of the East and has landed some monsters out there, and they are a regular catch.

One of my first ever trips with the bandit we got onto to some
good sized ones for the harbour at west arm . Have you got pics from that day Lee?, it was a long time ago i know that.
Rough guess 50-60cm, so how ever many kilo's a fish of that species weighs:-?.
Have caught some rippers myself at the fairway buoy in Karumba, easily 5kg fish, great fighters

6 1/2 pound is my best but my missus caught one that the head and shoulders went 4 pound, the other half was taken by a noah. cheers

A few years back (about 6) when I was doing charters for Equinox, lorna shoals got infested with them for 2 weeks in February. They were in amongst the Goldie schools. On one day we got 30 of them and the smallest was 2kg and a couple at about 4kg or 75cm. . Never seen them again near Darwin apart from the South mouth and the East Mouth towards Salt Water creek.

The ones in the last post I did on the South are all pidgeon cousins at 60 cm.

I remember getting some bigger ones back in the early 80's out off Point Stuart (funny nearly the same area)
