First Bass On Fly Gear

[Anti-Carp]

Took the family out for a day trip and decided to take the fly rod as i'm wanting to practice my fly casting. After getting onto the wharf i strip out 10 metres of line and make a very ugly cast. Stripped the fly back about a metre and WHAM i'm on..... at first i thought it was a mullet or a bream and then it took line and I was onto backing......was think this has got to be the mother of all bream. As I worked back inch by inch I finally net this bass to my surprise as I was fishing in the salt.

Not sure how big he was but from the label of rod to the end of the rod is 40 cm.

That's like finishing all levels on "Angry Birds" with 3 stars - a worthy accolade!
