    First decent Brissy Fish... but what is this one?

    Fished for a few hours this morning off the mouth with a mate (I'm from NZ), got this 10kg Jewfish? and also this other fish.... but I'm not sure what it is, looks like a smaller stouter version of the Jewfish?! It went almost 4kgs. Cheers, Andrew

    that's a grunter or javelin fish, bloody good size too well done.

    That was fast, thanks mate, will have a Google and learn a bit about them, had lovely firm white flesh so hoping it's good eating. Cheers

    Fought real well on 4kg braid alright, thought it was a Snapper as have caught a few over there before, dogged, head-thumping fight, fought better than the Jewfish at half it's size, infact the Jewfish did not do much really, just a heavy weight, a few more species to tick off the list thought! Was in about 8m of water on a Jackall Trans-am. Cheers
