humesy Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Took a couple of mates out last night to chase kings at dusk and jew by night. Didn't have a firm plan but had a few harbour spots in mind. Started at the bait gathering location with a hefty wind blowing. Picked up a few yakkas and a pilchard. Had an old squid head down which came up with two new squids attached. They were lured onto jigs and put onto hooks. Despite a lack of beer due to a misunderstanding, we were happy to sit around playing the waiting game. When fishing for jewies, it is a fine line between being patient and idiot fishing. I thought we had a case of the latter but we were hit about 2hrs after starting and again about 30 minutes later. Not biggies but nice baking size. Had a few more hits later in the night but no hookups. Interesting weather. Wind died very suddenly at about dusk and pressure was v. low. This didn't seem to effect the jewie bite but the bait fish seemed to shut down after dark. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewgaffer Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Back into the jewfish ay Andrew let's know when when you're thinking of heading over, can arrange to be there at the same time probably with Shirl... Can't wait to see how good the new set up turns out when all the extras are on, everything will be good on the eye and I know the finished product will be spot on.

zen801 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hey Andrew, Good to get that first one in the boat pretty quick. Gotta love the jewie smell. It looks like they are moving in and starting to feed aggressively. This is the year of big "mulloway". Cant wait until it really cranks up Feb - May.
