Pongrass18ft Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Hi fishraiders, Took the tinny out for a lazy Sunday afternoon spin to Port Hacking after my mate called to go for a fish as he hasn't been out for a few months. The water was calm so decided to head out to Yowie Bay, burleyed up and it was on. Plenty of Trevally and Snapper to keep us busy for a couple of hours, managing three keepers for the session along with one good strike giving head shakes turning out to be an absolute monster eel Laughing at my mate who is an eel king, one of my rods goes off, being heavy in weight I was leaning more toward a monster flathead and drooling as I love to eat flathead, turns out to be a ray Before heading for home my mate had to do it again.....another eel He is a definate eel king if anyone needs lessons on catching eels. All up we shared an excellent afternoon and some nice fish for dinner and the tinny ran well as it hasn't been started in months Pongrass18ft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumra Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Hey Pongrass, Good on ya for catching a feed mate. I was out all sunday morning on the hacking and was struggling to catch a feed. Only 1 salmon and 2 just legal bream. The fish were few and far between. You seemed to have found where they were hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was nailing the fish and I was getting nothing whereas usually my half pillies normally go ok especially on the blue nose breams, so I decided to change over to his method. Make sure you present your bait in all different ways as it is amazing how fish will eat bait differently from day to day whether it be squid bait, pillies etc etc. Hope this tip helps you out on the next trip. Good luck and maybe see you in the Hacking. pongrass18ft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
