G'day raiders,
It was a beautiful morning up here to let it go to waste, so with the rest of the family still sleeping, me and one of my little mates Brandon, decided to take to boat for a spin!
After not fishing for the last 4 days due to family commitments, just really needed to get a line wet.
So about 830 we launched the boat and set out to pick up some whiting for live baiting. In about 20mins we picked up 6, so it was time to head to our Jew spot. It was perfect conditions and tides and out went the livies. We threw done SP's for a while but without success, so switched back to bait and picked up a few undersized bream, squire and tailor. Caught a few decent sized sweep too, which was a surprise to me that far in the bay.
Anyway, right at the 2hr before low tide off goes the shimano, zzzzzzzzzzz, I said go for it Brando, he picked it up, set the hook and away she went. After me doing some untangling work with the other livey the fight was on.........
The young fella played it like a pro and after great little fight up came this nice Jew, 70cm and 3.2kg!
He wanted to take it home and promised to eat it, so I let him!
After that, we headed off and was home by 11 and to my surprise the mrs had bought me a gopro for my birthday...........hmmmmm wonder if she'll let me go back out tonight with my new toy!
Until next time, tight lines to all.
Cheers scratchie!!!
