Wasn't expecting to be able to get a session in on the weekend and didn't enter the R2M so decided to keep away from the arena (and with the lack of fish, sounds like i made the right decision)
Put in at Wynnum at about 7 and headed to an old favourite spot x off the northern end of St Helena. Just started getting comfortable and establishing the drift direction (only on my second cast) and lent down to move something in the boat when bang, a big hit and a hard fast run had me guessing. The run slowed and the tell tale thumps of a good snap started.yeeha, at that point all i could think of was that i was onto a spot of gold and i'd be bagged out in 10 minutes
.
The fight didn't last too long but a couple of late hard runs kept my heart in my mouth and i was glad to get him in the net. I couldn't believe how much different the fight was in shallow water, as i've been catching all my snaps in 15m lately.
Quickly released him into the esky and got straight back into it in the hope of some more bigger fish but only managed 3 more squire under 50 and a bream about 30 (all released). It shut down at about 8.30 and i putted around in search of some new structure but figured the day was done and i headed home happy.
Snap measured 65cm and was caught on a 5" blue pepper neon.
