houmous2001 Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 (edited) Hi guys, Had a sudden urge on Thurs night to go out for a fish, so i quickly grabbed my rods threw them in the car and headed to the spit to get some squid..... I got to the spit and realised i had brought my bait reels but not the rods .. damnn lol.... i quickly improvised and used the spools as handlines and in the matter of 15mins caught 3 squid and rushed off to catch the tides... I got to north curl curl at 12midnight and in the matter of 5 mins had my lines out ...lol i was rushing ... i sat back and watched ,,, then in no less than 30 seconds from sitting down my rod screamed off .... wohooo a 7kg jewfish ... first cast not bad ay ... second rod .... screams ... 5 mins later i land a 9kg bronze third rod ... my biggets tailor so far... it weighed 2kg So three baits three fish .. i was wrapped and headed home... not bad ay P.S how do i post pics here ... sorry about the delay ... here are some pics http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w103/ji...Photo-0017A.jpg http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w103/ji...Photo-0014A.jpg Edited March 28, 2007 by Jewiejoe

houmous2001 Posted March 23, 2007 Author Posted March 23, 2007 You make me sick Stood out in rain, thunder, lightning, fire, brimstone for a solid 4 nights last week. For nuthin' but sharks and a couple of salmon. On ya'. top effort Hey Humesy, It was actually your post that got me pumped to go out lol i was going to go long reef but too far of a walk lol i was lazy maybe we can have a team effort next time
humesy Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 Hey Humesy, It was actually your post that got me pumped to go out lol i was going to go long reef but too far of a walk lol i was lazy maybe we can have a team effort next time Glad to have inspired you mate. let me know if you are heading out and maybe some of your good fortune will rub off on me. PS. took the tinnie out last night and killed it on the squid. They went nuts. Freezer now stocked with prime jewie baits. Cheers
frankp Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 now thats what i call bloody efficent great session and well done man do i miss having jewie steaks on the bbq.
Mondo Rock Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 I got to the spit and realised i had brought my bait reels but not the rods .. damnn lol.... i quickly improvised and used the spools as handlines and in the matter of 15mins caught 3 squid and rushed off to catch the tides... So you're saying that I spent $200 on a squid rod for nothing? Great effort on the jew first cast - maybe they're around at the moment? Well, hope springs eternal anyway!
