  • There has always been speculation about the existence of 40lb snapper, but very little proof of their existence. But Matt Watson finds a bonafide source with hard evidence of these huge snapper, and he goes to try and get one himself.

    The one hassling the cameraman at the end was a dusky, you can see the interdorsal ridge very clearly. The one with the big dorsal fin would have been a sandbar

    Interesting how there are snapper in Norfolk Island there’s a highway the snapper follow from New Zealand to Australia maybe Norfolk is the retirement village for old snapper! I really hope they release these big snapper. They are ancient to reach that size and the breeding potential Immense. Side note : that 40pounder in the photo doesn’t have the big Aussie knob that big Aussie snapper have. So it must be a kiwi snapper 🤪
