The itch is scratched

[thelump]

Long time reader first time reporter. Finally it has happened. The one fish to have eluded my personal hitlist has just been added. Caught yesterday on a Gold Lazer Pro at a popular trolling spot off North Straddie. Hopefully the first of many.

Thats really cool mate, congratulations on a good feed of blue. Great size to eat.

I fish off south straddie and the Goldie mostly and have found the water a bit cool and dirty in close lately so how deep water were you roughly in?
Do you exit out the Pin or out off north Straddie, I do the pin now and again but it can get a bit hairy at times.

Cheers BB

Well done on your first. Its a great feeling to 'pop the cherry' on a species. And even better when its a tasty one.
