jaysondanielgraham Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Hay Guys went for a quick spin with a fellow raider last night in search of a 3rd Jew in as many nights. Put on a soft plastic and with the first cast bang reel starts screaming with line pouring off at a alarming rate. Thinking to my self could this be the 3rd time lucky. After a short fight with some screaming runs i land a nice bull mullet that was fowled hook. weighed it when i got home just a smidge over 2kgs my first mullet on soft plastics and i must say what a fight, it made a good count for it self. The rest of the night was the usual of flatty after flatty. Got 17 keepers and put back to many to count. Eating fresh flathead fillets on the BBQ tonight. And if there are any raiders who go down to windang and fish let us know would like to Catch up down there and show some or get any tips. Plus it just good to meet new people.

rjc123 Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Great session. Mullet go hard when properly hooked so i can only imagine how he would have fought! Top flatties for the BBQ!
kyngfish Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Your having a great run at Windang, didn't know it could produce so well. I suppose you are fishing next to the road bridge. Are you just using the usual plastics? Too bad you didn't hook your big Jew again, I suppose that's what will keeps you fishing there.

Yeah mate it good gown there but there are and have been quiet nights down there where the 50km drive home is not worth it. But it is a beautiful place to go and just relax. The only thing that upsets me is watching all these people catching udersize fish and keeping them and leaving there rubbish behind the grubs Some time for a joke i will tell them im from fisheries well you should see their face.

If you can get it late in the night there are less people there I find. If you want let me no what time you head down and I'll see if the boss (wife) will let me have the night of. It would be sweet to meet a fellow raider.

jenno64 Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Great session, I must say I'm surprised at the number of flatties you caught at night on plastics!
jaysondanielgraham Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 Great session, I must say I'm surprised at the number of flatties you caught at night on plastics! You can see them on the banks smashing the pawns so it's just a Mater if spotting them and putting a plastic on there nose. The rest is up to them but i'm not complaining.
MannY Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Nice catch man!! Never tried plastics there at night?? Can I ask what sort of plastics you use? I use prawns mostly there... You're right about the rubbish, people should clean up after they are done.

Thanks , from Sydney . Yeah using plastics at night is good. Fish don't need to see your plastic. They have a thing called a lateral line which is a sensor that picks up vibration in the water. So even if they can't see it they will no its there. What else would you like to no and remember i have only been doing this for around 3 years. So im still a baby with this. So there might be some other people out there that could help.
