inhlanzi Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Yesterday I went out to try and get some Hairtail. Got out early and went to the hairy area. Fresh bag of pillies and a few old ones just in case. 3 Rods rigged and ready for action. The weather was cold and cloudy and a bit of rain from time to time. The rain gave the boat a good wash...even had to use the bilge pump to get rid of some of the water. I fished long and hard all day and zip. Not a tuch on the hairy gear. Got a few yakka and odd bream etc. Came home and on the way filled up with petrol got one of those coles 20c off a litre dockets and I put in 150l into the car and the boat and guess what you need to take a 4c docket as well - didn't have one and had to pay full Friday price for Optimax!!!.....kind of sums up my day yesterday... Begged the wife to go again this morning she said yes and be home by 12 midday. So gone like a rocket at 5 this morning. Same place, same time, same rods, same tackle, same bait and first cast - Hairy! second cast Hairy - how does that work!!! Could not belive my luck. Went quiet had some coffee and thought I might try my luck for the big jew. Stuck out some butterfiled yakkas and sat back and watched. I can sit there all day just watching landscape the birds and the boats. Anyway nothing doing on the jewie front (as usual) so had another go at the Hairies ...bang in again! no 3 ...ah well have another go ... bang no 4. By eight thirty had the esky half full of hairies. Four is plenty for a great feed. So pulled the pick and headed home nice and early. One day nothing, the next... jackpot - what a difference a day makes cheers inhlanzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aero Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 The Pro's have found the hairy's too, The local fish shop had 3 pro tub's full with "fresh hawksbury hairtail" they were small bugger's though, like barley 2 and half feet. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flattieman Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Inhlanzi, mate, not many people can document your success on daytime hairtail (and nightime for that matter). Well done, once again!!!

dwaynebramage Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I am surprised we didn't see you out and about, we were also at our Hairtail honey hole, ended up with 43 hairtale for the weekend! Freezer is full will last us for a while. All caught on pillies infused with scotch, yes thats right scotch, I have no idea why but was my old mans secret recipe, we just inject each pillie with a syringe full of scotch. The things we do to catch fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo Rock Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Sorry - am I the only one who is questioning whether Dwaynebramage is pulling our leg with the scotch thing? Am I being gullible? I'm such a sucker for fishing advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
