Georges River

Recommended Posts

haven't posted a report in a while , sorry folks , been a bit lazy

Dad and me have been fishing regularly with mixed results

one highlight was a few weeks ago , I took a bloke from England out

took him for a couple of landbased sesions first to teach him about sp's

then on the boat for a go at bream on the Georges

well , didn't he show me up , 2 good Bream , a trevor and a dropped flattie at the boat

glad in a way 'cause you couldn't wipe the smile off his face

anyway ,on to today

I was using turtleback worms on my 3 pound set up and dad on his 6 pound

we hit our mark and we were both on first casts

dad with a 50 cm flattie and me with chopper

soon after i land a good breambo

the bite was hot and every cast was either a fish or a missed hook-up

we came in close to shore and i get a big hook up , plenty of weight , big flattie ?

the fish is hanging in the current and playing the waiting game

get it near the boat and it takes a run ,dad calls it for a Jew

I was nervous as I had only landed one Jew in my time , and that was on 6 pound

finally get it near the boat and Dad is right , couple of missed net shots later and its in the boat

67 cms on 3 pound and i'm chuffed

Dad changes to a blade and gets stuck into the bream

some good ones too like this 39 cm model

we both land more bream and flatties ending up putting back loads of fish , only keeping a feed

near the end of our trip I get another solid hookup , could it be ??????

yes

another Jewie , a bit smaller this one so it went back , we had enough fish anyway

2 jew on sp's , daytime = stoked

Thats a great bag of quality fish there Rob :thumbup: well done to you and your dad.

We were also up river today and all our fish were smaller versions of yours including this horse of a jew :074:

Awesome catches! Boy I would love to come fishing with you guys. The biggest Bream I have caught was pushing 20cm!

Would love to get shown the ropes by the pro's like you Robeebee, SwordFisherman etc.

I havent fished the Georges river yet, wouldnt have any idea where to launch or drop a line (nudge nudge wink wink :1prop: )

Keep posting pics so we can dream and smile with envy.

Regards,

Rob

Another crackin' session with your dad mate. Great stuff! :thumbup: You and your bloody turtlebacks ... how many different species do you reckon you've caught on those things now? Tremendous effort landing the jewy on the ultra light stuff Rob and that breambo of your Dad's is a beauty!

Cheers

That's a great catch there. Always look forward to your reports, always quality fish and congrats on your light line Jewie. What line/leader arrangement were you using by the way?
