landbased Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hey all, just a quick report about my exploits yesterday. After fitting my brand new first ever fishfinder I decided to go out to the hacking to get some nippers for a day trip with my 16yo daughter. Put in at wally's warf about 7.00 and headed out to mainbar. tryed for about 40 mins and got a few nipprs for the day out, then the wind picked up sounded around p/h and finally "saw" what the bottom looked like. No wonder I was never able to catch anything in the places i used to go. it is desolate and bloody deep lol. after drifting in southwest arm for a while I got my first ever legal taylor at 32cms yay!!. We pulled the pin at 11.00 with nothing else in the tank then went off to try como. Got there at a little past 12.00 and got a few small bream. then they came... the big bream 2 well over 35cms to me and i cant guess how big my daughters got as when it got colse the knot on the hook let go after that the water police came and accosted me again thats 6 times in 4 trips. good tosee them picking on people I mean looking at rego etc left at 2.30 no more fish but a gale blowing. At the boat ramp there were a couple of p platers parked on the ramp hanging out haveing a smoke and not moving for anybody so that just topped of an uneventful fishing trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickybee Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 sounds eventful. there is nothing worse than those unsavoury characters who dont move so u can get your trailer in to the water. scum bastards need to find a different spot to smoke cones of an afternoon behind closed doors and stop getting in peoples way. oatley bay is the worst for it. they even wait for you to say thankyou and apologise for being an inconvenience when they eventually figure out wat you need to do. sounds like an excellent day out for you and your daughter. good quality time together doing something you like. well done nice report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumra Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 good on ya for trying 2 river systems in one day.... shame you couldn't land more tailor in the hacking. My experience with tailor at the hacking is that if you hook onto a decent fish odds are there are plenty more in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
