mottyman Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 G'day Raiders, Well, to say Andy and I had our best ever session on the Parra today would be a massive understatement. I think we had the best day out fishing together - EVER!!!!!! We launched at 6am and had the nav lights on as we headed into the fog. We caught a total of 45 fish for the day. The highlights were two really big fat bream. The biggest was 37cm and then a 34cm. The species list was: Bream Flatthead Whiting Tailor Silver Biddy!!!! (x2) We boated fish after fish all morning and called it quits at 11am and headed back to the ramp. The funnies thing was Andy nagging me for about an hour to head up to his favourite spot - Hen and Chicken Bay. This was a hard decision as we were catching fish near the mangroves but I relented and headed to Andy's favourite spot. First cast, I came up with the fish of the day - the 37cm bream. To say Andy "gave it to me" would be a fair assessment of what he said! Now... can anyone guess what lure we used!!!! Here's a selection of the pics from a sensational day out for us. Cheers Dave and Andy!! Few More pics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those two bream are anything to go on then I'm sure Andy's guiding will take off in a big way. So where do we put our names down Dave?
