Hi every one. just thought I'd let you know we fished out at Lake Julius over the weekend aprox 120km east of Mt Isa. The kid's had a ball catching catties, longtoms, archer fish and sooty's on lures. Our 8 year old son caught his first sooty
(close to 2kg) cast and retreiveing a spinnerbait. The fish hit so hard it almost ripped the rod out of his hands. We had several huge surface strikes from fish we couldnt stop. What a buzz. All up 8 sooty's made it back to the boat. All were released. Some friends also came out for the weekend and there best sooty was a 40cm one caught this morning just after daylight. Lucky buggers had an extra day on the water while I had to come home to work.
