Another plastics recruit /brissie river

[chief]

Took a mate who is surf/light gear club fisherman for a first plastic session this morning on the river. Dam westerly blowing so we up against it from the start but we soldiered on. You could see the look of enthusiasm change as he had his first ensquirery. Bang Bang and then Hello these things work. No problem finding fish ,it was just that we could only find them from 25 to 34 cm. Although not a successful trip we did manage to Keep a slow flow of fish coming to the boat and enough action to Show that plastics worked . Good to see Garry catch about 10 or so squire and at least nail 1 legal flathead so it was a nice way to spend a few hours . Heaps of bait again with good fish showing but only the small ones on the chew. Ahh well it keeps you coming back ,doesn't it Cheers

G day chief.I think i saw you out there today.I was in the bluefin C- console.Managed one squire and a couple of bream.(saltwater chat)Ben

Chief,

I think you get rewarded just as much as your deckies when you see them use placcies for the 1st time. At least I do, most times I don't care if I catch fish, so long as my rookie does, and it's as good an excuse as any to get out on the water!

Hey Ben, when we had a flick near the passage / river i think i did see you .Two of you in a blue warrior with a c/consl? Any size to the squire you caught mate? We searched every where round the mouth for over 20 squire all up but nothing over 35 but it did the job on convinceing Garry you could catch fish on plastics.
Scalem ,i'm with you mate .I love seeing some one catch their first fish on plastics. Hey but i want to catch fish to.

Nice work converting another one Chief

[BLOOEY]

Yep that was us.Not much size to mine either.Got one 42Cm.Ben

[ddobson]

Well done i might have also converted one last night after his first plastic sesion and caught cod,tailor and some small squire on a 3 inch prawn and a 4 inch lime tiger. Happy hunting.

[chief]

Gee mate i would have been wrapped to find a 42 cm model yesterday. Thats a nice set up you have there . good alrounder from river to anything. you'd be useing plastics?Had a strong feeling to have an explore and run upstream round the gateway and fish around that stretch of the river but i didn't go with the gut feeling.I never get good fish with that westerley wind. Catch up next time ben now i know your boat.

[BLOOEY]

Yeah chief have had the boat for about 6 years now and am still happy as larry with it.Yeah using plastics.Saw a guy pull a real snap from underneath a wharf.See ya out there.Ben

[BLOOEY]

Dont know mate was my first trip to the river.The one that did not have a ship on it.

[loophole]

[Callop]

Well done Chief. I hope the commission os good for all the plastics we are buying instead of bait.
