Shot out in the bay for 2 hours before i had to go down to the border for the weekend away and first cast with a 3 inch banana prawn on a saltwater brim nitro and hooked him first cast ;Dbut only stuck him on the tip and straightened the hook with 10 pound leader and no drag so only thing it could be:-[. Got back home sunday lunch and shot out to have another go and hooked a few livies and finally hooked a goodun with to many boats to drift plastics and he spat me after a good fight as livey was wider than my 6.0 hook but i will hook em next time;). The jig from saturday had good teeth marks in it but i still cant match my photos with the attachments as it is finding photos on my computer but i dont know were its finding em as different files in my laptop so fun n games until i work it out:'(. Anyho no fish bar a small trevally at tweed rock wall and a guy hooked a small queeney on fly and a dude hooked a 68cm snapper on dust sat arvo just after i left on small tailor bait and had to get a tinny to land it after getting dusted on one before thinking it was a large brim and it was a huge southerly so lumpy swell must have done it:D. There you go snapper everywere but none on my plastics lol. I have been painting red eyes onto my nitro jigs with daughters nail polish and i think it is working in clearer water so bit of a tip there.PS just snapper the tip off my T Curve yesterday after just pulling my jig down to hook on to base and snap off goes a foot or so (back to rod repair again) Cheers DD.....
