Holy crap! What do they fight like?

I've only caught smaller ones (up to 80cm) and they display spectacular aerial acrobatics and often bite you off. Terrible eating but excellent bait!

I'm keen to hear what the OP says that whopper played out like! ;)

Had (what i think) was the one Eel stealing all of my Mullet baits when i was fishing for Bullies when staying on the Bribie Canals over Christmas. Caught him 3 separate times and he stole at least 5 more of my baits without hooking up (over 2 days). If it wasn't the one Eel then there are a lot of HUGE Pike Eels in there. He/they wasn't too far from the size of the one in this report. Evil looking things, quick snip of the line as close to the teeth as I was willing to go and straight back in.
