These yabbies are big in just about anybody's book. In my book they're certainly massive. I have not caught big yabbies this big sine the 1980s when I caught some true monsters up near Lake Urana.
My usual favourite yabby dams have all been effected a lot by the recent flash flooding and torrential downpour. They have filled with fresh water which has turned a dark, almost black colour and the yabbies are just not biting.
So I decided to try and different dam, somewhere that I had been eyeing off for quite a while, and boy am I glad that I did. I hit the yabbying jackpot!
I caught quite a few yabbies of varying sizes, and kept the 12 biggest while throwing all of the smaller ones, and yabbies with eggs back.
When I got home I measured the largest yabby. I laid the yabby on the bench, stretched out its claws and tail. From the top of it's claws to the tip of it's tail it was a touch under 28cm.
When I was catching the big yabbies in the super yabby dam recently (the one that is now full of fresh water) I measured the biggest one the same way and it measured 23cm. I though that was big!
Unfortunately the GoPro makes them all look about the same size, and my large hands do my now favours whenever I hold up a yabby for a photo.
