A few snapper in the Brisbane River

[Cody]

Fished the Brisbane River yesterday. Raining in the morning but ended up a fantastic day. Caught 3 snapper 40-45cm. Pulled the hooks on a couple of beauties. Also caught a couple of undersized school jew about 50cm, good to see. Should be some good ones around after this rain. Was a good day had a spin in the bay looking for tuna but didn't see a thing very quiet. Got a good feed anyway. Had a really hot bite for about 5-10 minutes, we caught 2 snapper and I pulled the hooks on another 3 than suddenly went off. All caught using plastics and mask vibes fished very slowly.

sounds like a good session mate, were you fishing near pylons/structure or dropoffs?

[ddobson]

Well done on hooking some snapps in the dirty water.

Nice fish mate. I went out for a fish last night in the middle reaches and caught a nice little Snapper. He went 36cm. Not bad, suprised me in the dirty water.

[Cody]

Yeah benni, I do fish with Ben quiet often, he's a good bloke and has picked up fishing plastics quiet well.

Benni
Mate just talking to Ben Crookshank then, we should line up a fishing trip in the near future around the Brisie River. I've got a 4.35 Hornet Trophy so I can fish 3 around the river, will talk to Ben and see if we can get out there.
