thanks guys the wife was still very happy to day till she hooked up with what was probably even bigger , well on its first run it almost spooled her I had to put the boat in reverse & chase it we had water coming up over the pod but we eventually got the line back onto the reel almost got the fish to the boat when
the fish straightened out her snap lock & stole her silver viper then she got her gold viper snagged & that was it no more vipers . I lost about two other lures & three soft plastics but on the possitive side we are getting better at getting lures out of trees . will have to get more lures two days left for me to break my duck
cheers jimmy .....................
no fish today , lost some more lures ( this trip is going to cost a small fortune )seen 118 cm getting cleaned a the camp cleaning table
Gotta love the Vipers! 118 on the cleaning table? must be hard up for a feed?
Most of my Money is spent on Booze and Fishin.The Rest is just Wasted!
To The Shed.............
118 on the cleaning table worse than hard up for a feed i reckon, i would rather eat catties
I have to come clean instead of just enjoying watching NAGG copping it about the Vipers (must be new years good will and stuff). I can't been able to catch anything on them either. I still have the first one I bought in the late nineties (from the caravan park at Awoonga from memory). Down to three now lost two on snaggs.
I like the look of them, good action , nice hardware, well made, trolls well, Aussie, etc. Just haven't been able to get anything (not even a bump) on them. Tried casting and trolling.
Done ok with the smaller boomerangs on bass, saratoga and yellow belly but Vipers are in the back of the bottom of lure drawer now.
