took the first window of opportunity off the beach after all the crap weather on the mid north coast lately,& with the new moon happening i was quietly confident of getting a feed.the young fella sam wasnt all that keen would have rathered got towed about on the ski tube in the river as 14yr old do i suppose.got through a nasty few waves getting off the beach and then out to the lucky spot which we call chook after the success with the chickens,conditions wernt exactlly pleasent getting there but luckily its only 3-4ks off the beach;drift wasnt too bad with e/se breeze about 10knots,got a few solid fish around 4 kgs on the first couple of drifts and a trag and little samson fish all on a blue neon peppers in the seven ",the young fella was on his first trip on the plastics and he'd got one around 3kgs which had the drag singing a little tune which brought a smile to his face,after loosing his plastic to last fish he wanted a nuc chook on so over it goes on a 1/2 oz jig head, not a few minutes later the snapper stix is arked up big time,after 5 min ,arms were hurtin etc etc wasnt getting much line back but wasnt loosing that much either,with butt of the rod under his arm & rod turned sideways fish was slowly heading in right direction,another 5 minutes and the first shine down deep and then couple more into the net,cracker of a fish and first time out fishing with plastics!!!!!we ended up with some solid fish but the young fella,s made the rest look like poddy mullet! he might want to go fishing a bit more now sorry for the long winded report, will get foggy to post pics soon cheers gillogs sam wasnt sure sounded better 23lb or 10.46 kgs? either would have done me!!!
