robeebee Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 after not fishing much due to crap weather and other commitments it was good to finally get some action Dad and i were on the water a little after 5.30 and headed straight to the end of the main runway using my new favorite lure , turtle back worm in Camo , it didn't take long and i was on a healthy hubcap sized Flounder , good start a few minutes later and Tailor were busting up on the surface , no time to change to a metal lure no worries , these turtle back worms will catch anything ,a near 50 cm Tailor is released not long till i'm on again with a fat Breambo in the net, this is fun Dad still hasn't got a fish but hopefully things will change got another fish on , only a small flattie but a fish is a fish things went quiet so we headed for the oil wharf after Scotty Lyons report of Kings and as soon as we got there , saw some boils and cast at them ,BANG ,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZing great fun on Bream gear first fish around 60 cm's so back it went next cast i'm on again , how good is this ,similar sized King ,my left arm is starting to ache finally its Dads turn and his reel is singing , better fish me thinks i start reeling in my line to take net duties but get smashed by a good fish , double hook up , YEE HAA after going under Dads line and round and round Dad gets dusted on the pylons i offer him my rod to have a go at catching a King but get busted off myself , good fish the Kings move on and we try a drift along Kurnell for Jack went to the middle of the Bay and drifted back towards Brighton plenty of dropped fish , but plenty caught more Bream ,Whiting , flatties including a nice 60 cm model i gave to Dad for his and Mums dinner sorry no pics was too busy catching and releasing fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james7 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Always enjoy reports from you and your dad. Plenty of action and a good varied selection of fish too. I know you fish light so those kings must have been fun. But you have to take time out for at least a few pics next time. The photos of your and your dad's catches are always worth seeing. Great report Robeebee. Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACIMA Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Well Done Rob to you and your dad It's been a while since I've had the chance to get back out there but after reading your report it felt like I was out there with you. I can't wait to get back on the water and get onto some those fish you kept pulling in. What size jig heads were you using with the Turtlebacks?
