Another Solo Session In The Georges Ups Pb Again

[johnno]

I decided during the week Sunday was THE day.

So when the weekend was fast appoaching and the weather was looking bad.

I planned to hit the harbour for a session but once the alarm went seabreeze told me otherwise so snooze was hit,

I finally hit the Georges river after the weather looked better.

It was a slow day which i went out the front and off towra and got nothing except colder,

but i got results with some ideas to suit the conditions further up river in deeper water using vibes.

My first bream was 27cm on a blade in 25ft so quickly i dropped again and within 1 min

i was on which it felt very solid and i knew it was a good fish hoping to up my new pb from the social of 30cm last sunday.

After some big runs i saw the leader knot and the net went under and i was over the moon. :yahoo:as i knew straight away

it was a new PB but how big

34.5 to fork 38 to tip

i moved on and got another hit which felt different and as i seen it at the boat i was shocked,it was a 50cm+ pike that cut the 6lb leader

and swam off with my vx then just a tailor to finish.

All bream fell to the ecogear vx40 (409) my go to blade

Well done Johnno,

Great fish in tough conditions.

I went out both Sat and Sunday (both afternoon sessions) with plastics for very few keeper sized fish - only a 33cm breambo, 37cm Trev and a 45cm flattie. There were a bunch of little flatties to 40cm and heapes of little tailor around making a niusance of themselves!

The water was bloody cold.. 13 degrees in most places and sometimes down to 12 degrees.

Only fished from SP creek to kangaroo point.

The water was really dark today compared with Sat. Looked like all the silt fron the port Botany dredging had been flushed into the river

Anyway, good onya mate!

When are we gonna hook up for a session?

Cheers

Chris

Hey Johnno Well done and Congrats on the new Pb

Sounds like I missed out on a great day on the water.

Those bloody Pike have cost me a few good lures to.

We'll have to get out soon
