after trying to put the boat in today we thought our day would just get worse as tweed isnt a great fishery land based.
we hit up a few of the usual spots but only a few small bream were caught.
we kept riding untill we found a small creek about 2ft deep.
i had fished this place before but something today just made it fire!
i havent use ecogear sx 40's much latly because of all the new lures (bassday,megabass,luckeycraft ect) but these usually come with crap hooks and split rings because they are designed for fresh water.
ayway back to the point because the sx 40 has good hooks and rings we cast natural colours like the 303 and 307 around the flats smashing a hell of alot of bream around 25-29cm. nothing special but it was a hit or if not fish every cast and you cant bet that!
we headed of to my favourite land based spot were i have caught some awsome fish from before including my biggest bream. but there are only certain times i can fish it. about 2nd cast the rod got almost torn out of my hands and after thinking it was a giant herring after seeing others busting up i soon felt the head shakes that can only be 1 fish. soon we saw the big bar of red swimming along the rock wall and after a few nervous moments seeing the 6lb leader near the teath and gill s my mate used his bag to net the fish.
i was pritty stoked as its my biggest jack this season.
because dylan hasnt been fishing for long with lures he loved the hard body fishing and after buying 2 sx 40's the other day will soon go to buy more as there isnt much paint left on his!
between us we caught an easy 40 fish.
he even stared catching bream on crappy lures like the kokada's look alike lure of the ecogear that doesnt even have an action! the bream were so agressive the also hit out poppers like trevally!
an awsome days fishing considering the howling wind and the boat out of action.
