Ken A Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I went around for a fish with Hookem Herby on the runout tide this morning. Fishing was very slow as we had a south east wind blowing (as usual) stuffing things up. I managed 3 bream all taken on SX-40 in colour 306. There's a pic below of a fish about 28cm or so. I have noticed that the better paint job on the SX-40's is standing up very well to the fish. The current one I am using has taken about 20 fish & has not lost any paint at all. A real improvement in quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Nice one ken, i'm a big fan of the paint job on the new 40's. I also have given one of my 306's a good work out and still all nice and pretty. It'd be about that time of the year when the big bream start to show up around your way again soon won't it?? Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Nice fish Ken, that SX 40 is worth its dosh with the amount of fish you pull in with it. Hey Mitch, where have you been lately? Havnt seen many posts from you, you'll have to come out on my new (second hand boat) soon. cheers Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken A Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 I get more than my moneys worth out of SX-40's. Its rare to lose them here as I fish mainly open water. Last season I caught 87 Bream on one & 65 on another so if thats not getting your moneys worth what is How much are bream fillets a kilo Mitch the big Bream here are mixed with the small ones & any cast can mean a 40 plus fish. Its a nice lucky dip I don't mind my lures looking second hand but the new finish on the SX-40's is very durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVAN Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Nice work Ken, Nice pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken A Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 I managed another 3 today in better conditions but I had to bale out early to come home & meet my family when they arrive from Sydney. Herby was just arriving so maybe he will go better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
