olitay Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 went out for a fish last night, couldnt resist getting out amoungst the low pressure and the build up to that magic storm last night. You all know the process by now, caught some bait - landed some kingies!!. They were feeding like Crazy!!!! then as soon as the storm came they were off the bite!!! Thought i would post some pics...... best king went 75cm, all on Yakkas..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewgaffer Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 went out for a fish last night, couldnt resist getting out amoungst the low pressure and the build up to that magic storm last night. ...They were feeding like Crazy!!!! then as soon as the storm came they were off the bite!!! Well done Olitay. Very impressive timing! My oath it was Taking notice and getting out amongst the low pressure as it was dropping ay. Nothing in beats the barometric pressure and proper timing, they've gotta stock up their food and take a rest too and you got yourself out there no matter a storm was on its way. Sure beats a day out on the water with no regard to conditions or locations for the conditions and using up heaps of fuel and wasting valuable time and getting nothing but a cold for a few laughs.

slinkymalinky Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Great post... the photos are great. Congrats on the fish. It looks like you didn't have too many other boats to contend with as a bonus for braving the impending storm. Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbielites Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Nice one mate We were out there too, we were in the other boat on the harbour The storm was a cracker hey! I got a bit nervous in the tinny and headed back to Tunks full throttle I met your mate at the ramp and had a bit of a chat, didn't get his name but tell him I said Hi! Robbie.
