Joco

Sent you an invite I havent used the STELLA for ages.... Maybe this Thursday night

THERE is plenty of good fish in our local water system.... Im scared if Stewy comes up this way, he will catch them all NEVER been fishing on a yak before... If you have a spare one wouldnt mind joining you... IN the mean time, my plan is to target some Jewies on plastics Thursday night if anyone is interested...

Landbased??? Or would you prefer on the boat???

LOVE it because its so TRUE Ive caught flathead, taylor, jew, EPs, Bass, blackfish, saw CARP as well mainly next to the rivers

THANKS fellas, hope the trend continues BUT this time with a Jew fish or two.... iMick and Cheder, this coming Friday (morning) if you wanna catch up and go for a flick let us know....

CONGRATS on the new PB..... Thats a cracker of an EP....

Strange, weird and bizarre... Im dating a Buddhist girl..... Ill have to ask if she was involved and get back to you .... AND ask about this ritual... Knowing her, she will deep fry the Barra.... IF such a thing happens, they should release the Barra "UP MY WAY", Georges River, Chhpping Norton

Nice catch Matt.... HOW do you fellas eat this type of fish... Grilled, pan friend, crumbed, BBQ etc???

SOME VERY GOOD POINTS!!!!! Never though about it that way, never crossed my mind.... Now I will be paranoid once going fishing.... NOTE: "Don’t hook up a spawning BASS Joco, hook up a big Jewie"

I thought that might be the case in relation to being fat, due to spawning..... Thus the reason why you can fish for them BUT not take them throughout the June to August months... :huh: what do you mean by re-absorb their eggs??? Eat them!!! Not too sure, never heard of such a thing... BUT it cant be good for the fish, whatever the case....

Thank you for the replies..... Definately a great session on light gear... We caught them landbased.... If you look closer at the last photo you might know where it is.... I need to buy myself a boat and go exploring throughout the Georges... Now time to attend x20 weddings, engagement parties, bucks night.... What's with that this time of the year!!! I wanna go n fish Only disappointing thing was seeing so much rubbish on the water banks and actually floating in the water from all that heavy rain...

THANKS J, but unfortunatelly not as big as your Jewie.... One day ill get there

THATS what i thought!!!!! Johnny and i were arguing over it....

WELL after a long absence from fishing (5-6 weeks) due to work commitments and a holiday, it was time to hit the local spot for a flick. I teamed up with Johnny (Fisher Doi)for an early session at Chipping Norton. We got to the water prior to sunrise, no wind at all, and first flick i was on Ended up pulling out a solid 35cm EP.... Next thing you know Johnny is on after a couple of flicks... The whole morning for a good hour, we were pulling out Ep's, left righ and center... Double hook ups, heavy hits, many misses, and on several occasions we got busted off, even though i was using 10lb leader.... Laughter and excitement echoed.... What ever plastic/hard bodied lure you threw in, it was bound to get smacked... The fish were nice and healthy with fat bellies (all of them)... One fish regurgitated a couple of herring, i guess thats what they must have been feeding on..... I was surprised that 90% of the EPs caught were averaging a HEALTHY 35-37cm... AND did i mention they were FAT.. Biggest of the day was at 40cm.... In TOTAl we lost count of how many fish we caught... Must have been a good 35-40 units, if not more... FUN session i must admit.... Good way to come back to fishing.... Joey

YET again a great report Roberta.... GOOD to see the ongoing trend of fishing.... I dont wanna work anymore!!!! Takes up too much of my time I wanna fish Daniel and I were hopeing to catch up with you at the next social, BUT wont be able to make it... Daniel (srm150d) and I will be at Shellharbour camping... I ended up buying an RV5 aswell

Nice work, i love the photo with the dog... Classic..

NICE work, nice to see some reds smashing the plastics... OFF course they are edible, just nuke them in the fry pan

WOW.. Thats all i have to say, and that im jealous. Great report. I love outdoors, camping and fishing are my two new best friends.... Love the photos...

NICE work Hodgey, Salmon are always fun to catch, especially on light gear and soft plastics.... Im sure your arms must have been aching... Next time try a 1000 reel, 4lb braid, 4kg rod, for some EXTRA fun I LOVE IT! Like you, Ive been absent from fishing a little over 5 weeks... Withdrawal symptoms are kicking in... Went to the coast the other day and the water was dirt brown Might have to come down and join you, for a session such as the one you experienced... Joey

WOW.... Great vids.... My mission is to hook up one of these babies on a 2-4kg rod....

NICE work yet again fellas.... Congrats Mike on the beast.... PS - Good to see Greg holding something else other then a jew (i envy you)

AGAIN GREG, if the jewfish become an extinct species, i will blame you WELL done....

UUUUmmmm thats not fair, leave some jewfish for us to catch Well done I need to find myself a new job, so i can find some more time to fish...

OOOOOhhhhh no, ive organised a camping trip that weekend....

WELL DONE fellas, great report.... Thats one big fat trevally... Sorry to hear about the one that got away.... Thats what happens when you target jews with light gear, LIKE MYSELF 4kg rod Im still bashing my head against the wall, with a jewie that got away, it was 2m away from me
