Hi Raiders Had a break from soccer duties so I thought I would ring a mate and see if he was interested in some R&R. Boat hitched on fresh bait on ice and we were off to try our luck after the bit of fresh water added to the water. Put the boat in at Parsley bay and headed for Juno point, nothing but sharks so decided to head off to dangar island for zip. Was approaching the end of the tide so motored up to the rail bridge for one last try. Baits in the water, a few nibbles but nothing actually taking the bait and running so persisted for a bit longer and Payday the first run was hard and fast with me nearly getting spooled as I was only using a bream rig, some 10 minutes later and happy days a nice Hawkesbury jew measuring 920mm long.

Hi Aussieweekender I was at the parsely bay boat ramp Regards Jim

Hi mate; We were using peeled prawns regards Jim

well done mate,fish of a lifetime. Great post Regards Jim

Well done boys, do the hard yards and you reap the rewards.

It went 44cm. Regards Jim

Hi Raiders Went for an afternoon fish with my 11year old daughter on the hawkesbury on friday, The wind got up a bit but was still pleasant enough to drop a line. Started at the vines for a big donut then went to bar point for the run out tide,started slowly then all of a sudden the daughters line goes mad,line running off at a hundred miles an hour. This is the final result

Awsome to see the smiles on the kids faces.I love that look on my own kids faces when they out fish me after that effort you must be in for a day pass to go out and get amongst them yourself. well done mate. Regards Jim

Started out early with a good mate and headed out to find some squid,for a big doughnut, caught some yakkas and headed outside hoping for some action.Started slowly but soon fired and before I know it my yakka gets smashed leading to at five minute fight before, BANG!, GOOOONE decided to drop in some smaller gear and two bream ( 37cm an a 39cm model) and a 42 cm snapper and all is good Wind picked up and all went quiet. My mate Matt caught the biggest rock cod I have ever seen and that was his day,Still a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work. Regards Jim

Well done boys great fish still trying and waiting for my first botany bay kingy,as they say good things come to those who wait Regards Jim
