FishermanSteve Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Today on a charter just off of Wollongong I caught my first legal Snapper. I can't remember the exact measurement and now I've eaten it there is no chance of a remeasure. We were fishing in approximately 70m of water. I used a three hook rig, all 5/0 circles. Bait was half salted pilchards. Conditions were reasonable and we watched the rain glide past without being caught in it. A very enjoyable day to tick another species off the list. I also caught a 52cm Flathead and two 38cm Flathead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingie chaser Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Looks about 42-45cm to me Doesn't matter as long as it was over 30cm. I bet it tasted great, how did you cook it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The texture was perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
