nice one tom,its always good to get smashed by an unstoppable occasionally, keeps the imagination going for days thinking about what you cuold have done differently or how your going to do it next time. cheers mate
G'day all,
This morning at 8AM a mate and I caught the train down to a spot where we usually chase Bream. Armed with light gear and Squidgie Wrigglers in all different colours. as we were not expecting anything major we used 4lb straight through, but today was a different day. We flicked along pylons for roughly half an hour with only a few juvenile Moses Perch which put up a great little tussle for their size.
We then moved spots to a sand flat with plenty of Bream and Whiting being spotted. First cast with a Atomic Hardz Crank I was on, comes in a stinking Pike, my mate Matt flicked out a Squidgie Wriggler in Bloodworm and boom gets smashed by a juvenile Big-Eye roughly 20CM's. After 10Minutes of no strikes we go back to the Pylon's.
We flicked into the pylons for about an hour with only a few average Bream and a truck load of juvenile Moses Perch. I flicked right into a oyster encrusted pylon and on the lift up I got smashed, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ for approximately 20Seconds the fight was on but the fish had the upper hand on me. He wrapped me around a oyster and it was all over. We believed the fish was either a juvenile Yellowtail Kingie or a big trevally.
All in all, a brilliant day to spend with a mate flicking placcies around a beautiful spot. All fish were caught using FingaMaJigs and were released
Thanks Tom
NOTE - PHOTO'S WILL BE ADDED LATER!

I always prefer an unstoppable to catching a few small fish, gets the blood pumping. It makes for a better story too, nice work Tom

Hi Tom,
Good report and I agree with Honky Dory that your ability to write with good English and punctuation is very commendable for your age.
The following comment is not meant critically but since you like to write correctly, there is only one error I noticed and that was that you should use an before a word which starts with a vowel as in "an oyster" not "a oyster" etc. End of shcool lesson!
Keep applying yourself well to all you do and you will do well in life.
Good to see youth motivated to be out and about doing something that is not destructive.
Best wishes to you, Tom.
Eleanor
