Went down to my favourite spot and fished from 5am - 8am. Put 2 lines out one with herring (dead) and one with Mullet(dead). Not a lot happening for the 1st hour. Eventually the rod bent over and that sweet screaming sound got my attention. A big strike and the trusty 4/0 octopus circle was set. A few jumps and a few runs later I had my first for 2008..................a god looking 90cm salty.

lets hope there is more to come...............OH what a feeling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Argh!

Kev, you beat ne to it. Well done - good looking satlie that one.

Were you down there on Tuesday am early wearing a white t shirt?

We were trolling the outside of the marina wall - would've come over to say g'day but, there were so many fishos on the rocks, we couldn't make it with all of the lines.

Cheers

gggrrrrrrr...I'm so jealous, well done kev, good to see your persistance pays off. Hopefully I can get one on the board soon, I don't care how big it is, a 2inch barra will do, just to get me started and break this voodoo
