funnierthanu Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 With the boat stuck behind the work trailer and full of crap ( another job that can wait ) i decided to hit the rocks with a mate for a quick early fish .The tide was a good sized high at 10 so the plan was to fish early and be home by lunch to have a fresh fish bbq with the family .We hit the rocks at 7 and fist cast resulted in a good size drummer .The next 4 were bust offs and when this happens the fish usually shut down . For the next 30 mins all we could get was sweep and wrasse.We were starting to worry that we had blown our chance with the earlier bustoffs . I had to do something so i weht down to the 4.5kg line and it worked .We were into the fish again . I scored 5 in 5 casts and my mate got 3 in 6 casts . Next thing i knew my mate is yelling that hes onto a big drummer , i call it a big silver and he agrees but the fish goes high and he gets some line back. Then it heads straight for us and he guides it straight up the rocks and we look at this awsome 3kg snapper . We fished for the next hr getting our bag of drummer and headed home for the barbie .Love it when a plan comes together , its even better when your mate gets a trophy fish of the rocks .

Keflapod Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hey funny, you're a real freak of nature. I mean that in a good way... A good freak... No wonder you win so many comps. You''re the doctor dolittle of fishing. I swear you must have a lateral line on your back.... or maybe like Kevin Costner in waterworld - part lung, part gill....... I think that catch deserves a fruit basket prize... Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
