Fishing School

[paddy69]

Hey Raiders,

I am determined to post a fishing report on this forum. I have been a member for nearly three years and yet I have not posted a fish that I have caught. Now, quite a few Raiders have offered help, Tolz, PredAtor, Cungee George and boys I am for ever greatful and can't wait to get on the water with you all very soon. But I need to catch my own fish. So for my birthday last week my wife got me enrolled into fishing school and tomorrow I have 7 hours of it. I should be a PhD Fisher by 1pm tomorrow. By 1:15pm tomorrow I should be posting my first ever solo catch.....

To give you all an idea of how bad its been I went out fishing with fellow Raider Tolz (Anthony) he caught ten fish to my one . I take three blokes on MY boat and all three will bag out! Not me them....This Ladies and Gentlemen has to stop:thumbup:

So I look forward to posting tomorrow.

If I had 1 tip to give it would be fish as light as you can.

Don't underestimate a 4-6lb leader, as long as the drag isn't locked the fish can be played out.

Hey Raiders,

well I went to fishing school and I have to say it was pretty good. I had a great day with five fellow fishers and the teacher a very knowledgable and acomplished Fisher. We fished the Bay for 7 hours using heaps of different techniques. We moved around a lot and I learnt a thing or two about fishing. It was pretty hard to find any fish early on and Ithought I may be some kind of jinx.....four hours passed before we landed our first legal Trev - however we found a school and in around 10 minutes we had landed about 20 of the little fighters.

All in all though it was a great day and I am really looking forward to showing of my new found skills very shortly!

Cheers

Pat
