Botany Bay 13-3-09

[Penguin]

Hi every1,

A couple of mates and I fished the bay on Friday in search of a feed of

table fish. We found it hard going and we tried half a dozen different

spots. At most spots we encountered Salmon they were fun but not

what we really wanted, kept 4 and released 8. One Sambo already

had 2 hooks in him, 1 in the side of his mouth, and 1 in his belly, both

hooks had about a foot of braid attached to them, obviously hes busted

a couple of fishos off, but he was no match for the 5.5kg mono I was using

though. We also caught a couple of Beam, a Flatty and a few Trevs (33-42cm).

At the Bare Island Bommie I tried one of those Shimano Lucunis Octopus jigs,

I got heaps of hits on it, but only managed to catch some of those red, spiny, big

mouthed fish wateva they are called, let them all go. Saw lots of baitfish in the

bay also but no predators hitting them
