Got this guy today. Was about 200yrds outside the port and clearing lines. Was bringing in the long corner and and watching it kick up spray as I reeled it against the prop wash when BAM! White water and a nice solid thump on the rod. It wasn't able to fight much after that, just skull dragged it in thinking "wtf is this? Small GT?"

Hard to judge size by the pics but it's 90 cm. or about 35.5". They can grow to 240cm. Over 6'6". Looks similar to a king but has more body to it.

Keep it tight

Hey, that's pretty sweet Chris!  I've only seen them suckers in magazines and do look like bulkier Kingfish.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.
