blue marlin Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) Went out early this morning to get some reds.Went to the usual spot and started to burley had no bites for about 2 hours then got the king which was 68cm,half an hour later got the smaller red on cuttle fish. Lots of runs and some big bust ups and finally got the bigger one.And good to see i only got 1 jacket. Edited May 31, 2007 by mrs rzep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find just after 5 oclock with chips and dip you can usually score a few.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flattieman Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 What a fine feed of fish! Sounds like a good session - do you think the bust-offs were from larger reds? Flattieman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tumra Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 hey nudge, I was out on the bay on sunday as well, but wasnt hooking up any snapper that size.
