I had not given Noosa ago since i got my boat so next thing u know i'm getting up at 3:30 friday morn to drive up! Intentionally having no bait on board i was determined to get my first cod and fish in general on soft plastix. so we first tried trolling around woods bay at dawn Where my mate hooked up after a small fight i netted him a 46cm cod, not bad especially since it was his first on lure and the first target species in my boat!! So we continued trolling woods i had 10lb braid set fairly tight hoping 4 a jack wen i hooked up it was a small cod 36cm it didnt go that hard but it was my first cod so i was still excited by we trolled 4 an hour or so it was getting late in the morn so we gave it away for a few hours hoping for an awesome arvo sesh! We arrived at the ramp at 3:00 later that arvo and headed up the river planning on casting the snags! we cast for an hour changing from hard 2 soft plastix no luck except for my first fish on placcys it was a bream nearly the same size as the lure but i was still happy! so we changed the game plan trolling the snags after 10 mins my mate got a snagg so i put the engine in neutral and started to bring my lure in wen WHACK!!!!! a jack smashed it had 20lb braid on the calcutta 200 hoping for a bigger 1 it went hard 4 its size anyway got him in the boat pretty quick took a photo and forgot to measure him b4 i let him go! "I always do that!" but all in all it was a pretty good day and very much a day of firsts!
