bunney10 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) I get a call from my mate Jeff on Saturday asking if we wanted to take the kids out to the perch grounds off Terrigal, i was desperate to try the new reel ( Daiwa Seagate 4500) So in double quick time we on the ramp and ready for some jigging( i'd stocked up on more jigs seeing as i lost a dozen to the pesky jackets the previous week) The water was flat as and in no time we were on the fish, luckily only lost 2 jigs to the jackets when suddenly im on so over the rod goes to my 8 yr old who played it like a pro Wish i had've videod the grin he had on his face, would've put a cheshire cat to shame, the pic says it all Had an awesome day, not loads of kings but just happy to have another "jigger" in the making Edited June 21, 2010 by bunney10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
