Well it was about time two of emu parks finest got out and had a fish together.....Well i don't know who those idiots are but me and Jt Python went out fishing for the day
It all started with me sleeping inand a very embarassing phone call was taken at about ten to five with JT saying "were are u?" not the best start but i made it to the marina quick smart, loaded the gear and off we went.
There was also a scratchie at stake for the biggest red fish of the day too so it was game on
We headed east to fish some fern ground so we could come home with the predicted SE'er that was due that arve. This trip I was trialing a different setup with the PE tackle gear to see how they would go.

Red Zebra fly with ganged 8'o deep v reefmasters
We were using a mixture of pillies, fresh squid and frozen slimies. No time to stop and chase livies with the time of the tide. So out we shot, sounded around and down the lines went. Things were quiet with a few moves here and there before I finally came up tight. With not much fight but good weight I was thinking cod, then a nice largie pops it's head up. With bugger all fight we were all surprised.

As soon as that largie was on board Jt swung back around and anchored up not wanting to spread the school. Next drop and i'm on again with a quality trout swung over the side.

Another largie by your truly

The red bite seemed all done and dusted by about 10am'ish so we picked up a few straglers as well as a decent black king.
As JT was giving me shit about sleeping in the drivers chair that he was sitting in broke and all i could do was laugh. Laughing at him not the damage so I now ask him constantly when he is going to weight watchers
The scratchie will have to wait as both our biggest largies went 81cm so a dead heat was declared.
Overall I had a ball with JT and his old man Bill. My missus Amanda was pissed off cause she couldn't come and anyone that knows her knows she is a ball breaker when she is cranky. Allways next time sweety
So thanks for invite JT and hope to do it again soon. I'm sure if I have missed anything JT will add
cheers from boony
P.S a couple more pics and also very impressed with the pe tackle rig. The reason for trying this is (IN MY OPINION) the hook up rate using a stinger setup was good but not awesome. Using this rig I managed 100 percent strike rate from hooking up on the bottom and getting them in the boat. Not sure if sean from PE is going to market them as I was just trialing them.
