First serious SP sesion in Passage

[Kleyny]

My brother and I have been dabbling in the trying art of Placcies with little to no luck. Possibly because we were always distracted by the bait rod.
But this morning was the first SP only session. It started at 0600 with us making lots of noise at home (Wife not real happy I'll tell ya;D )
In the water at Donnybrook at 0630 went to the spots that I had scoped out during a family cruise trip.

The beginning was slow and windy so we went to plan B. The action started to heat up got a good hook up only to lose it:-[ . Moving to any spot my brother says yep I'm on with a short tussle he brings in a legal moses (his first ever fish on SP) which for some reason released in the moment::) . In the same spot around fallen logs we got 2 small flatties.

Went to another spot that was a shot in the dark i come up with a another decent fight with a 32cm Bream landed. Not bad considering we were targeting flatty.

I think the SP bug is taking hold of us both now.I hope that persistence and more home work the legal catch rate will improve. Certainly a fun day on the water.

Sorry no pictures as I was enough trouble getting what i did out of the house:)
