Well went for a fish with a mate of mine on Friday during the day.Was quiet till about midday. We caught heaps of herring and the fishing was hot for about 45minutes. My mate caught two jewfish one was 56cm the other 55cm and I caught my first daytime Threadie at 68cm and 2.4kg. We caught a huge pike eel and due to its gills protruding from its mouth we ended up keeping it and putting a fair chunk out on a handline with a 16o through it. We got a huge hit but it managed to snag us. One of the jews had a huge bite mark in it. Anyway the fishing went dead after that. My mate went to the same spot the next day and caught a 10kg cod- so maybe that was what took the other bait. Great day to be alive. Sorry no pics.
Nice one mate! Sounds like a top session.
You got that Thready monkey off your back a while ago and now they are coming easy for you. You obviously know how to 'think' like a Thready now
And for your mate to get a couple of nice little jew and to backup the next day with a solid cod....Great days indeed.
nice report mate, a 10kg cod would have put up a great fight, cheers

Great stuff mate, Talking to Brad the other night and he was saying most of the threadie captures have been from farther up stream. The fish may be finding warmer water at the moment. your slaying these threadies mate. I've just got to get my act together and get some time on the water.
No Photos chief. I wasn't with him but all the locals were all raving about it.
