Mercer007 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Hi Raiders, Headed to Avoca again yesterday arvo hopeing for a few tailor on dark but only managed 6 fat salmon in 3 and a bit hours. Ray R popped down for a yarn and was kind enough to take a few photos of the fist catch of the day. Was armed with pillies and the tide was an hour and a half from the top and still running in. Here's the pics Ray R took of the first fish of the day. Can't wait for the FR social. Will be good to put faces to names etc... Only 11 sleeps to go. Regards 007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job matey I keep sayin I will be heading up that way but time is tight with the kids, I really hope to catch up with you guys very soon.

marley Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Top catch! Salmon are great fun off the beach, especially when they start jumping out of the water once they know they are hooked Do you eat them or release. I have heard fishcakes are great but have personally never tried making them gav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgey Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 That is one chunky Sambo mate! Congrats on a great little session Cheers Hodgey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james7 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Great salmon Peter! I reckon if you can average one every half hour then you're doing okay! It's also good to see that Ray's photos of the salmon no longer make them look like they're been "crumbed" (covered in sand)! Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray R Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Nice fish Pete, the pic doesn't show the height and girth of that fish, I can tell you though it was the fattest I've seen by far, it almost looked like a different species of salmon.. My turn this arvo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
