Joco Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Hello raiders, apologies for being a stranger to the forum (busy fishing).... Went to Jindy for 3 weeks (skiing) and only managed to squeeze a couple of days fishing for trout.... I was desperate to beat my PB and BOY did i have a ball..... First day, caught my PB brown trout @49cm (Rapala Lure).... Second day a new PB @50cm (Rapala Lure) followed by a 55cm MONSTER (Tassy devil)..... To my dissapointment the fish did not put up a fight at all, must be the cold water.... Few times headed up the entrance and caught the usual Flathead, Taylor and even sting rays on soft plastics.... BOY they are fun to catch, never seen my rod flex so hard or heard my reel screem so loud.... One particular day i was left speechless as x2 BIG flatties managed to snap my braid line... BOTH of the flatties put up a good fight considering i had a 2kg rod with 4 poud braid..... ALL i saw was the tail come up in the shallows and slamed the water 3-4 tmes..... Other days my freinds and i hit the Botany Bay a couple of times.... We are NEW to the whole fishing from the boat thingy so still learning.... We are AMATEURS but as long as we are out of the house, we dont care if we come home empty handed.... Managed to get x5 BIG squid (Squid jigs), X15+ Port Jack's on fresh squid and a Snapper.... NOTHING on plastics or hard bodied lures YET.... 49cm RainbowTrout 55cm & 50cm Brown Trout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berleyguts Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Some nice fish there, mate. Well done! Just one thing... the top trout is not a brown. It would be a rainbow - still a nice fish. Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
