Hi Fellas, My first report here
Headed down to the Seaway south wall on friday the 4th with the old man.
We arrived at the seaway at around 4pm with a handfull of 65gram metal slugs each. Within 10 minutes i was onto a solid hookup. After a decent fight, a nice tailor around 50cm+ was brought to the surface. As i went to bring it ashore, the hook poped out and off she went.
Next cast and BANG, was on again. Once again a solid tailor, and once again lost at the rocks
Things then went quiet for an hour or 2 untill dark. Dads mate in the mean time had arrived and was fishing 15 metres away from where i was, using large mullet fillets. I decided to head over to his spot as he had a solid hit and miss a few minutes ago. I casted out the 65 gram and twitched it off the bottom and it got smashed. After a 10 minute fight and the old man spotting with the flash light, we noticed it was a nice size GT (around the 3 kilo mark). I hoped down the rocks to go collect the fish. As i got within inches of grabbing the fish, the hooks poped and it was all over once again. Wasnt a happy chap.
A couple casts later i was onto another quality trev. This time the fish got the better of me and took off under a rock only 5 metres out. Sat there for about 5 mins hoping to get the fish out but no luck. Ended up breaking the line and loosing fish and lure
Rerigged another slug and was back in the drink. Within a couple casts was on again. 5 mins later i finally landed a fish!
Next cast hooked up and landed another bigeye of around the same size
Decided to call it a night after that, but wanted one more cast with a homemade slug made out of a spoon handle. I must point out the boys were giving be some friendly shit allnight, saying the spoon would never work
What a great night it was
