Ken A Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 This afternoon I manged to duck out while my visitors were having lunch & coffees etc & I headed around to the ridge for a short session. Conditions were pretty good but the SE wind was a bit of a problem. Amazingly it dropped off completely while I waded out. The wind god was smiling on me I was off to a good start with a 32cm Bream first throw & over the following hour or so I managed another 5 good Bream & a 61cm Flathead before the mobile rang & I was ordered to return home The best Bream went 37cm & the smallest 32cm. 4 were taken on the mighty SX-40 in colour 306 & 1 bream & the flathead were taken on a Deception Paleamon. ( I'm doing a kind of SX-40 versus the rest test while the Bream are about ) I kept 3 Bream & a Flathead for a fish barby tomorrow night. A "BBB" night.

Ken A Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 careful that other chap doesn't berate you for keeping too many fish I don't kill large quantities as I don't freeze fish so just a few to munch does me & the old man. There's nothing wrong with me or anyone else here doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajun Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Good Onya Ken, Pleased to see the wind Gods work in your favour for a change. Cheers Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookem_Herby Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Well done chief ... a couple of better size fish there. I had 2 males and 1 female in my haul from the day before and the female was quite full already. I think we'll start seeing bigger fish and better hauls in the next week or two. Enjoy the BBB mate Herby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only take what we intend to eat fresh Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Onya Ken, after all your reports and success with the SX 40 I went down to the local tackle store with the intentions of adding one to my lure collection and giving them a go, you know what, they didnt have them! Oh well, looks like I'll have to stick with the fly, such is life. BTW, with you and Swoffa copping a bit lately on C & R, although mostly in jest I'd imagine, it looks like everyone is at least concerned about the state of the fisheries at the moment.
