    Mine is 92cm @ 5.4kg

    Caught down the Jumpinpin on:
    Shimano Raider Finese Bream 1-4kg
    Shimano CI4 Stradic 1000
    Diawa Sensor 2kg braid
    8lb fluorocarbon leader
    1/4oz 3/0 jig head
    Squidgy wriggler 160mm (I think that is the size)

    Was the first fish for the day and was certainly my best ever.

    Released to fight another day and hopefully give another angler the thrill that I had.

    Nice flathead fishinwahbee. Have a look in the saltwater photos section. There are several threads in there on biggest flathead (mine is 88 cm!)

    91cm at woodgate land based (soft plastic), then got an 89cm landbased in the gold coast broadwater (on a gang of pillies meant for a tailor). Also had a mate catch a 107cm absolute monster off the kingfisher jetty on fraser island (on a live hardihead caught in the middle of a hot jewie bite). all released. They just seem to get bigger and wider with every few cms after 70cm. a 70cm lizard looks small compared to an 80 and an 80 looks small next to a 90 and so on. they just seem to stop getting as long and just get wider and thicker. Thats why the 107cm was an absolute honker. biggest i have ever seen.
