    Qld snapper Record???

    Hey im just wondering the qld snapper record, reason being at work the other day there was a bit of an argument on the topic 1 fella said that the record was like 12 and a half kg, i recon it has to be bigger tho, check the snapper in my avatar that went around the 11-12 kg surely someone on here that lives in qld has topped the snapper in my avatar.
    i had a quick search but couldnt find it.

    Depends what record your talking about?

    Qld GFAA snapper records as far as i can tell are

    Male 2kg ..4.1 kg
    Male 3kg...5.36kg
    Male 6 kg...8.6kg

    female 4kg..4kg
    female 6kg...7.4 kg

    junior 3kg..5.36
    junior 4kg...6.8kg

    The all line class australian GFAA is 16.2 kg from Cockburn Sound WA

    But remember these are only submitted fish the biggest local snapper i know of came fron the Bulwer ledge at 14.19 kg and of course it was caught using a PLASTIC!!!!
    Alcohol doesn't agree with me, but i sure do enjoy the argument!!!
