Guest Greeko_Fisho Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 GOOD AFTERNOON FELLOW RAIDERS, FOLLOWING THE EXAMPLE MY BROTHER IN LAW HAS SET (YIASSOU KYPREOS! ), I WISH TO POST MY VERY FIRST REPORT/CONTRIBUTION TO THIS EDUCATIONAL/INFORMATIVE SITE. ALTHOUGH THE STORY IS A FEW MONTHS OLD (POST XMAS), IT IS MY ALL TIME HIGHLIGHT IN MY SHORT FISHING CAREER! MY IN-LAWS HAVE A PLACE AT JERVIS BAY, AND DUE TO KYPREOS RECENT PURCHASE OF A BEAUTIFUL QUINNIE 540 WE COULDNT WAIT TO HAVE A CRACK AT THE SOUTH COAST (AS WE REGULARLY HONE OUR FISHING SKILLS TOGETHER IN BOTANY BAY!). I THINK BETWEEN US WE HAVE READ NEARLY EVERY BIT OF LITERATURE AND SEEN MOST DVD'S OUT THERE HOWEVER HAD MODERATE RESULTS (MAYBE 5-6 MAX CATCH). HOWEVER, THIS TRIP PROVED TO BE THE CATALYST OF CHANGE (AND BOY AM I HAPPY THE CHANGE CAME WHEN IT DID!) - THIS HAS RE-INFORCED MY LOVE OF FISHING! WELL WE WENT THE WEEK AFTER XMAS, AND DECIDED TO HIT THE BASIN (GEOGRAPHICALLY CONVENIENT AND SIZE MANAGEABILITY A POSITIVE). MONDAY WE SET UP SHOP AT SPOT X WITH KYPREOS, HIS BRO AND A CLOSE MATE OF MINE. AFTER A GOOD 3 HR SESH WE MANAGED 6 BREAM AVG SIZE 31-32CM AND 3 WHITING. WHAT MYSELF AND KYPREOS WERE SURPRISED AT WERE THE CONSISTENT LARGE SIZE BREAM WE BOATED. TO BE HONEST I DONT THINK REMEMBER HAVING TO RELEASE ANY AS THEY WERE MORE THEN LEGAL. DUE TO FAMILY COMMITMENTS WE COULDNT GET OUT TILL WED. MYSELF, KYPREOS AND THE FATHER IN LAW JOINING US ON THIS OCCASION AFTER WE TALKED UP THE MONDAY SESH....WHAT A SMART DECISION HE MADE! FROM 6AM TILL 1PM WE MANAGED A PERSONAL BEST HAUL OF 13 BREAM, 5 WHTING, 5 FLATTIES AND 6 FLOUNDER - I WAS AWESTRUCK AS PERIODICALLY OUR LINES WOULD TWITCH THEN BANNNNGGGG! WE WERE ON! THAT BUZZ IS DANGEROUSLY ADDICITIVE (WHICH LEADS TO SLEEPLESS NIGHTS AND PRE-DAWN RAIDS ON THE BAY - AS HIGHLIGHTED BY KYPREOS REPORT!) MY PB BREAM TO DATE WAS CAUGHT IN THIS SESH GOING 39CM AND 1KG IN WEIGHT, AND WENT DOWN NICELY WITH SWEET CHILLI, LEMON, S+P AND A SIDE OF CHIPS AND SALAD (MY MOUTHS WATERING RIGHT NOW!) GUYS TO CONCLUDE I RE-AFFIRM MY LOVE OF FISHING, THE FISHRAIDER SITE AND THE SOUTH COAST. TIGHT LINES EVERYONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
