April Jacks

[Tropicaltrout]

Well it was not the best time nor was it the best weather but when things go right they simply go right.

With a bit of descussion over late months I met up with Nipsta for a arvo session on the jacks I gathered the bait earlier that day and the stage was set for a great arvo , but as the day progressed the day was becomming a little off but to never the less we were hitting it regardless.

So in postion we baited up and casted the first baits and with my highest hopes simons surface bait leaped from the water with a red devil hot on his tail and but second hit not so lucky for the bait. A nice fish landed at a guess of 50 cm, after a quick picture a ready to go jack went of swimming again. So out went the baits again and a short wait and simon was in again a little smaller but still a nice size fish 40 odd cm, after that followed a bream and I finally got ripped with a healthy hit but failed to sink the hook.

I then landed a small flathead, and soon enough landed a mid size jack who is now in my tank but now hes in there i have the erge to take him back for release ,

Anyhow we ended up with 3 jacks landed around 4 or 5 solid hits 1 bream and 1 flathead, not bad for a April session.

Anyhow till the next time.
