A fisherman has shared pictures of the massive once-in-a-lifetime 80kg fish he reeled in while angling off the south Queensland coast.
The fisherman from Brisbane threw in a 30-pound, or 14kg, rated line about 40km off Point Lookout at North Stradbroke Island on the weekend when he reeled in the startling catch.
The 175cm giant is bass grouper - which normally reside at ocean depths of between 250m and 600m - with the largest recorded having grown to 200cm in length and reached 100kg.
