reelmagic Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) Hi Guys, It's been 8 weeks since we have wet a line and took us some time to 'remember where we left the boat!!' Didn't really care if we caught nothing , just wanted to get-out and burn some diesel. So......... we fished yesterday in the 15-20 knot west sou-wester. Wet / uncomfortable / cold, but in the end we found a few small ones. Caught some livies early, had a visit from the waterways boys and then headed out for a troll. No boats, no birds, 20.8 degree water in a 1.6 knot current. After 2 hours or so, we got a triple hook-up.............. and only got one to the boat as we lost a lure to one and a hook to another, due to poor tackle maintenance is my guess!!!! .......... that'll teach ya! a mate said !!!!!! Anyway at least we got one! Trolled some more until we ended up in an estimated area to set-up a drift to see if any more were around. Started a cube trail with a few baits out in within 15 minutes we hooked another. Continued the drift and got one more at 4.45pm. In all, not a bad diesel burning day after all! regards, reelmagic Edited June 7, 2009 by reelmagic
Flightmanager Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 Nice way to break the drought!! Very nice fin!! Ross
Ray R Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 Good onya chaps, a great day out after a spell , look at all the blood ,they are real bleeders.. Congrats on your fish.. Cheers..
abiasin Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 great work out there fellas considering everyone else is doing it tough at the moment. great pics also.
Spoont Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 Well done boys, it's about time you gave the weapon its bluewater fix. Did you launch from Port Hacking or Kiama??
double pluggers Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 I have to say if those two fish were lost to bad maintenance it would be the only thing the magic men have done wrong in the time i have been on the boat.I was lucky enough twelve months ago to be taken under these guys wings. I have been fishing since i was two but only landbased until i was old enough to have my own boat. In the last twelve months i have caught more quality fish than most people would ever be lucky enough to come across (55kg yellow fin tuna, 110kg black marlin, 85kg stripe marlin) just to name a few of my high lights . These guys have taught me so much about game fishing and leave nothing to chance the attention to detail is demonstrated in their results. Great blokes i am stoked to be on reel magic.
