Hey Raiders,
Got bored at home today so i decide i would go for a quick flick in Iron cove.
It was half tide and the tide was running out (i find this the most productive time to fish).
I tied my new pencil on, Jazz Zappa In Lemon Tiger.
Took me a few casts to get the walk the dog action right but once i got it right the bream couldnt resist it.
Every second or third cast i would get a strike.
About ten casts later i hooked up, didnt fight to well compared to the other bream i have caught but was still exhilirating watching the bream smash the pencil off the surface .
It went 24cm and i released it.
After this fish i hooked up 5 others but i pulled the hooks on all of them and i was using super light drag. I spose this is just what happens when using surface walkers.
Now im hooked on surface lures and ill be back to the tackle shop to get a couple more pencils
