sadamson Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 A great day greeted us as we hit the ramp at 6.00am.The plan was to fish the Cooks river and catch me a Jewie.We headed up river slowly casting soft plastics at the banks.A slow start then after Stewy pulled in 3 small Flathead one after the other,I started to think here we go again Stewy catches all the fish and i man the landing net,make the coffee and take the photos.But then my line went tight and in come a fair size bream,then a bigger bream.This set the pattern for the next 4 hours lots of bream of different sizes stacks of Flathead including 2 double hookups.than the trevally turned up 4 good size fish landed,a couple of small tailor rounded off the catch.Approx 40 fish caught we stopped counting.Still no jewies.All the fish were caught on soft Plastics, Blood worm wriggler was the best proformer.Every time we rubbed a little "S" factor on the lure it got hit soon as it hit the water.The river was like a sheet of glass and looked very clean BUT WE DID NOT TAKE ANY FISH OUT OF THE COOKS RIVER.On the way back to the ramp Stewy said we would stop at the last bridge and have one last go for a Jewie And yes as on que Stewy hooks up a nice Jewie, 200 meters from the ramp.Photos taken and off she swam.My jewie will come just not today.As alway had a great day on the water with Stewy and i learn something each and every time we go out.

bluebottle18 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Great catch fellas. You certainly travelled a long way up the river to Tempe Station. I stand corrected and hope you dont mind me saying where you fished if that was where you did. The area around Tempe I grew up Ie Mackay Park and the old bowling club. I go back to the 50`s where we dug worms and had our own spot. Took a potatobag down filled with food scraps given to us from Russos fruit& veg shop. Before filling in where we dug drop the sack in for next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
