SNAP-ER Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hi raiders,sorry about the late report. Went out to Botany Bay two weeks ago at 6.30pm with my little cousin,in the chase of a jewie or two.We had a few livies which we had caught the previous week,and decided to take them out as we thought they would be great bait for our primary catch and had thought about doing this for a while. It was a very cold night and our feet had gone numb from the cold chill even though we were wearing socks and shoes.We were contemplating on going home cause of how cold it was but thankfully we stayed and were rewarded.It would've been about 11pm and i was taking off one of my jackets,and funny enough my rod buckles over and my reel goes for a scream.zZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I grab the rod and strike!,i turned around to my cousin and said i dropped it,next thing you know i feel tension on the line and strike again,deffinately had him this time,brang him up,and as soon as he saw the boat he went for his last run .Finally made him surface and just turned on his side,ready to be netted,my heart was racing as he didnt fit in our net,after the fourth attempt,we had half the fish in the net and scooped it into the boat. HI 5ive to my little cousin and we were two very VERY VERYYYY!!!!!! happy fisherman. I LOVE WHEN A PLAN GOES AS PLANNED!!! WENT IN CHASE OF A JEWIE AND GOT A JEWIE. The only other fish we got was a 43cm flattie the next morning.We were on the water for about 15hours thats DEDICATION IN THESE FREEZING CONDITIONS. Got home and first thing we did was took some proper photos with the camera,weighed the fish and measured it, 6.2kg and 88cm long, new PB JEWIE. Will add more pics soon. TAKE CARE RAIDERS!!
