mmarkich Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 went for a fish with a mate down at berowra last sunday (oct 17), by 11.00am we had a nice feed of fish. 1 x jewy at 22lb and 1mtr long, 1x flatty at 7.5lbs and 72cm long, 1 flatty at 62cm long and 3 x flatys from 49cm - 56cm long the catch bag weighed in at 39lbs, great feed of fish and about time as the rest of my year has been a bit quiet. the jewy took out about 150mtrs of line on his first run and then a boat tried to cross the path of my line. i quickly opened the bail arm and dropped the rod tip to the water, the boat only just missed my line (lucky). he got a few nice names shouted at him and then i got back into the fight. Once i turned the fish i got right into him keeping him heading towards me. just as we landed him the other rod went off with the big flatty, it was mayhem for about 20mins. Great day , great catch and great weather, what more can you ask for...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day's Fishin Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 You would have to be happy with that haul! Like George and many other boaters we have all had the halfwits that cut close to you cutting your gear. I often get them coming up behind us when trolling to see what the slashing is trailing our boat. The boys have got pretty handy with pelting rocks at them which we keep a small bucket full on board.
