hi all. well if the title has you looking for a monster snap in the hands of a trendy dudei am sorry to disappoint you. mildly disappointed myself too
. the plan was this: take out old mate who missed out saturday to harries, catch 2 big snaps and go home
. plan b was head to peel to fish and then ride home the afternoon se wind. didn't quite pan out that way
. long, hard day today. started at harries about 6am. few little bumps and small fish but nothing else. moved to the spoil ground north and not even little bumps. about 8 i made the call and headed for the houseboat but there was too much current there and the lecky couldn't hold us so did a couple of drifts of the arties for some littlies and then anchored on the edge of horseshoe looking for a sweetie. gave that a while before going for a troll to myora without so much as a grinner even
. then packed in the trolling and tried for a tusky. dropped a banana prawn on a paternoster and did a few drifts in the rainbow. caught a few snaps my mate reckons were legal but they looked small to me and get to play another day. third drift and i get a good hit and i'm on. got him up off the bottom pretty quick and was surprised how much he put in the rest of the way. i would say it had the same sort of steam as a 5kg snap. at 54cm and 3.4kg he is my best bay black spot
.
and i somehow either stuffed up reading the forecast last night or it changed because i slapped a noreaster side on all the way back and got drenched through
