G'day Raiders, After viewing the fishraiders site for the last month I thought I had better contribute. With my son on school holidays I decided to take some time off work to try some of the locations discussed by fellow raiders, but wouldn't you know it we had bad weather for most of the week . Fortunately we did get out for a excellent days fishing on 10 Oct. We started at first light in a nice hole we have been trying for a couple of months. After bouncing soft plastics and blades throughout the water column during the tide change and many bumps I finally got my first jewfish - it was a small jewie but still a major acheivement after many weeks of experimenting with different locations, times and lures. . This jew was quickly followed by a decent lizard. It was hooked in the same hole as the jewie and at 76cm is my PB for a lizard on lure. . The hole then went quite, so we moved upstream with the tide to try catch our first EPs. We found a nice hole on a bend in which the sounder showed schooling fish. We immediately got our MF40s into the water. On my second cast I pulled out a healthy 31cm bream and my son quickly followed with his first EP. After releasing the EP the bite shut down for over 30min.....vvvvery much like schooling Bass. I finally caught my first (and small) EP. These little buggers can fight and are fun to catch on bream gear. It was a great day on the river.

awesome fish mate, would of been good to get one of those today, would have been a struggle on the light gear

quality job there. nicely finnished

hi all just wondering if i could get some help with places to fish out of my canoe in georges river up around east hills and out of williams creek? will be taking a mate out to help in catching him some decent fish, and considering i dont have a sounder or anything and wont be able to tell depth and stuff. will be using lllures, hoping to get some fish on the mf 40's give em a test out. cheers bassboy

not all blades are metal some have a metal head and plastic body. but there are also soft vibes which are nice for use. fish hold on to them alot longer too

unlucky on the lost fish. we all have those days. interestingly the MF 40's and blades were the onlything cathing fish for us yesterday. landed a nice fat 50cm flatty. not huge but good fun

nice fish, good work on the no gulps on board, go the squidgy lobby. good plastic in my books

well done mate, love the blades though, they work a treat on whiting ive got a few over 30cm on em. yet to catch a bream on them though, only got flatty and whiting
