Yep, persistence pays off. And your worst day fishing

is still gonna be better than your best day at work!

Shows that if you don't give up.... you catch something. Even if it's a cold or an old boot!

Well done.

G'day mate and to FR, thats a great mixture of finned critters mate,

you would have had a ball.

Where is the area you are fishing , just general nothing specific.

Great read and keep the reports coming..

Cheers..

Hey Ray R,

Area: Sydney Eastern suburbs

But more importantly............... the secret bait................. bread!

Good berley to start (bread mixed with 1/2 a pack of chicken pellets). Watch the way it drifts..... and the fish were literally jumping out of the water to get hooked. I've never seen luderick and drummer in such a frenzy, smashing bread on the surface.

Couldn't believe it!

Take care,

Adrian.

Sensational day at my local spot. Got myself a few pb's too!!!

Thought I was killing it...... until, I changed from the float method to get my pigs and niggas when a mate took me to my spot X two days ago.

Weather overcast, drizzlely but the wind held up. Barometer dropping and fished the top to run out tide.

'Watch grasshopper, said Brett. New method... size 1 or 2 bait holder hook to a size 00 running bean sinker. I have 12 lb line on my reel but I put a on small swivel to a 17 lb leader. Still in it for the sport of it, but I love the adrenaline rush when you hook something good. Thinking about it, there's a bit of dancing around the rocks to go with it just so I don't get smoked!

Anyway, a good berley to start and then bits and pieces while fishing. My mate Brett smashed it two days ago and caught a lot of what I caught by myself today (a good mixed bag!). I couldn't get the feel of fishing the new way at first .... and just watched Brett with a grin on his face like Dale Kerrigan in the 'Castle' pulling in fish after fish. Then .....it clicked!

I got my p.b 40 cm 2.15 kg black drummer and two good niggas 36 cm & 39 cm to take home. Threw back two small drummer, my first silver drummer, 1 trevally and a small bream. Now I was grinning too!

Great day and a new way!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then.... today went down by myself and replicated the previous session.... but with now Master Brett. Could I pull it off on my Pat Malone????

Weather overcast , drizzlely and the wind was up a bit today. Barometer steady and fished the top to run out tide again. The wind did give me the $%^&s but I started casting in between the gusts and put on a size 0 running bean sinker. That did the trick!

Well..... I $@#&ing nailed it!!! From the photos you can see it was good, huge mixed bag!!!

PB's: silver drummer 36 cm, yellow fin bream 37 cm and my first few keeper trevally's... largest 42 cm and luderick 43 cm. And my total PB in one session:

8 luderick

4 black drummer (largest 38cm)

1 silver drummer

3 yellow tail bream

5 trevally

Now I don't take everything home that's just legal!!! The group shot with the dog was just after I took the fish out of my keepers net and I did throw back the small back drummer, small bream and the thumper silver drummer. I only keep the good sized ones!

Took home 5 niggas, 1 pig, 1 bream and 4 blurters and some good photos too. The dog loves the treva fillet raw with rice.

Sorry to dribble but I had a great day! .... and you didn't! Well I hope someone else did? Makes me feel heaps better about losing my job last week!

I'm outta here and hitting the hose. Bye.

[Loving Luderick]

Went for a session this arvo on the rocks. 3 rock cockies, 5 pigs and 7 luderick. These were the stand out worth keeping but the chinaman fishing next to me wanted the rock cockies. Crappy flesh and in plague proportions.... who'd wanna eat'em.... spose he'd have a recipe for them. My knife is 32.5 cms long and I got smoked 6 times too and lost 2 floats! All good in a 4.5hr session.

Outta here!
