nickm469 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 G'day all, havent been fishing in a while, and last weekend mate calls me up out of the blue. "wanna come fishing? I just bought a boat." . Plan was to leave kissing point and head out around cockatoo island for some bream and snapper. left the ramp at 10:30 and headed off towards the city.... on the way we stopped just pass gladesville wharf about 1k and dropped anchor... put out a strip of californian squid and BAM!! not even 1 minute and landed a jew 65 cm. stoked! first cast and a jew on board, anything else was a bonus. Put on another squid strip and kept getting pinched by pickers meanwhile the bream rod dips down and goes for an awesome run. After a minute or 2 next jew on board, a little bigger so didn't bother measuring him. Now im over the moon. never caught more than 1 jew a session. Mate was pissed as he dint get 1 bite so we headed over to cockatoo island. Anchored up in about 10 m of water. Really slow to start off with then every cast was just undersized snapper. Good fun but no keepers except for a couple of bream. Was getting REAL cold at about 3 we decided to call it quits. Down with the last bait, mate pulls up another undersized snapper. Meanwhile I get a tap so i strike, only my fish goes for a mighty run... felling bad right now as I'm sure i got another jew. Number 3 in the boat after a couple of minutes, I could die happy now!!!! an unplanned fishing night turns out to be the best i've had so far..... called it quits after this. Donated a jew to my mate for an awesome night out. went over to my fav wharf on monday night for another crack at the jew... really slow night. forgot my bait jig,so went for bream instead. while breaming i got snagged near the wharf. managed to pull it out, and hallelujah!!!! a bait jig with all its hooks still attached. rigged it up and managed to get only 1 yellowtail. sent it out live... untouched for 2 hours so sent it out again butterflied.. nothing again. Decided to pack up. while packing up, i hear that familiar run. Grabbed the rod and handed it over to the missus as she was having a crappy night. Thought it would be a good laugh, but to my amazement, she handled it like a pro.... in the net, jewie number 4. been an awesome week. Don't let the cold weather stop you, the fish are always around. cheers guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james7 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Four jewies in two sessions. Great effort Nick (Of course that's only three more than I've caught ALL year ) Definitely worth braving the cold! Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers johnny Hey Johnny bro, i strugl to get wacha rote. Reckon youse wna talk in the msg area. Sum fins up wif ya and nick. Seriously I think this method of communication is hilarious. Your use of words is creative and interesting, abbreviations and misspellings purely for the purposes of brevity. Couple that with a plea to nick to take you out for fish gave me a good chuckle. But I understand completely. Jewies can do that to us, especially if there are more than 1 in the photo. We start to babble and write in the same way. I'm sure Nick will take you out but watch what he does closely, else he will get 3 jewies again and you none. Then you will definately not LOL. More like COL ! Tony PS - Well done Nick on a fine haul of jewies... Edited July 13, 2011 by Keflapod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
