Gave it another shot Sunday looking to get enough fillets for our visitiors later in the week. Launched at 4:15am and headed to my spot. Out goes the Gulp 3" minnow. New moon on it's way and tide on it's way in. Pulled in a couple of undersized flatty's and scored an 31cm bream all in the first hour. I was thinking it was shaping up well. Alas it shut down for a while:-?. So I went for a troll heading south down the passage for same result :-?. Turned around and headed back. Found a little feeder creek so paddled up into it as it opened up into some yabbie banks and mangrove lined banks. I was only in 40cms of water and pulled in another 58cm flatty. He gave me curry in the shallow water and I could feel his teeth rubbing on my 8lb leader:o.
Cast back in after snipping off the frayed leader and got hit again by a good sized something only to have my leader snap. Tied on another one and kept drifting over the banks. There was a lot of bait fished being worked and I would have loved to have stayed but I had to get home for a BBQ. Had one last flick at my honey hole on the way back in and got snapped off again this time at the hook!>:(
Anyway, great day out!! I have next week off so hope to get stuck into them then.
