Thanks guys totally blew us away when we saw it was a huge gummy and not a bronzie as expected. Had some funny moments trying to get it in the boat as the tide was ripping and the net was struggling to gobble her up.
Unforgettable experience.

Biggest Gummy I've ever seen...

Shaun messaged me straight away and I think I had to look at the pic a few times incase I was seeing things.

Well done mate!
