So went to Kalbarri Friday and came back last night. Never been before but loved it and the weather was perfect :)
Woke up early Saturday morning and went down to red bluff beach, threw out a mulie on a sinker, planted me rod in the sand. 10 mins later i was on it was fighting hard and had no idea what it was, then up it came in the surf a SAMBO!! i was so stoked never caught one before and never expected to get one on the beach. Pure awesomeness!! Planning another trip soon for sure :D
Im estimating it at about 80cm and 8-10kg not too sure though. Feel free to comment your thoughts on size/weight.
Cheers
Chris

Yeah looks like an amberjack to me. Better than a sambo- pull harder taste better.
