Breambucket Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Hey guys went for a mid week session with my brother in law after finally moving up to Sydney and having some time off Started at woolooware bay and things were slow after only a few missed hits and after a couple of location changes we finally found some fish. Most were legal size and a couple going around 30cm but they were hitting the blades i have made like steam trains! Here is one with my home made blade in its gob The tide stopped so we headed out into the main channel and landed 2 keeper whiting and 2 nice sized flatties within 20 min then it went off again. I have seen a few reports about the cooks river and the northern side of the bay and have never really fished it so headed that way. We didn't have much luck and i dont know any spots around there at all but it was still interesting to see some of the structure around those parts. Other than a trevally of around 36cm and a few small trumpiter i think we wasted prime time that we could of spent in the southern side of the bay and got caught up in the heavy winds and rain which made things a little uncomfortable and hairy at times but we were alright. Back into woolooware and the wind was still strong which made it really difficult to control the drift and i dont have an electric bow mount yet but still managed to pull up this nice bream which again smashed a plastic ment for a flattie but its a very welcomed by-catch All in all it was a nice day and released all bream just keeping 3 flatties and 2 whiting for beer battered fillets that night Oh and i landed this nice flattie that went 62cm on sunday. i didnt have the time all week to post a report so ill chuck it in here Cheers guys Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACIMA Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Well done BB. Nice report and pics. Even better when you can claim them on your own homemade lures. I tend to stick to the southern side of the bay myself. ACIMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgey Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Good stuff Pete. Have you been experimenting with color schemes on your blades, and if so, have you found a particular pattern that is working? Keep the reports coming mate. It is great to read about someone consistently getting into fish on their own home-made lures! Cheers Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breambucket Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 Thanks for the replys guys! The southern side is defiently more diverse and a prettier place to fish thats for sure! Hodgey...... I have not had too much chance to play with different colours just stuck to natural looking darker colours which seem to be working in the areas i have been fishing, Black with a little orange on the belly is deffently the best so far. Oh and keep a look out in the mail in the next few days too mate Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
