sorry just answered my own question - fish is white trevally
caught this little fellow around shag rock off Straddie. Looks like a yakka on steroids, but deeper body and longer nose. Was around 35cm long. Trevally of some kind?

"The underlying spirit of angling is that the skill of the angler is pitted against the instinct and strength of the fish and the latter is entitled to an even chance for it's life."
