Reply With QuoteNice fish! Thanks for the report too
hi all. up at 5am this morn. told the missus last night i was coming back when i got an over 70 or sunday, whichever came first. plan was to hit peel arties, catch an over 70 and go home. yerright. met up with bruce at about 7, brief yack and into the fishing. one of them real quiet sessions and surprisingly not a big heap of traffic. a few came and went over the first 5 hours. bruce picked up a 42 just after i took off south but all i had caught was a couple of grinners
. including a pb
. anyways by 11am i was getting a bit toey and decided to go the run to mud. got up there and started south of the carpark on the eastern side and drifted for an hour for just grinners. okay, new plan required
. went and dropped anchor in usual spot a bit north of the carpark. put a whole yellowtail pike (caught 38 of them last week at mud) on a gang hook rig and grinner fillets on a single hook and kicked back for a coldie. had a few bite offs way up into the leader and in one case the braid, which i put down to grey suits. still managed a few grinners too which i kept and used for fillet baits. about 2.15 whilst re-rigging the small rod the overhead takes off and i was on. familiar runs and shakes had me excited and pulling him against the current stretched out the bout. worried about sharks the whole time but it was all good and i netted a solid 79. packed up and home by 3.30. bit disappointed the 3 p's didn't do it for me today but 2 out of 3 ain't bad
.
fishing's as simple as 3 P's - patience, perserverance and PLASTIC!
