A few members from the Dumbleyung Offshore Fishing Club headed to the coastline between Albany and Bremer Bay late in April and caught themselves a monster of a cuttlefish! Local Jon Ward pulled in the record breaking catch which weighed in at 9.92kg, breaking the previous Dumbleyung Offshore Fishing Club record of 8.2kg held by the late Terry Ward.
The four members who were on the fishing trip all enjoyed a meal of fish, chips, salad and a few red tins. Though such a large fish (approximately one-and-a-half inches thick), it needed to be bashed to make it tender and much more enjoyable.
A photo of the catch was soon posted to Facebook and has caught the eye of The West Australian newspaper, with an article published on Monday May 8th.
What a catch! Can’t wait to see what the next record breaking catch may be!
