steze Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Real crappy weather the whole time I was there. Managed to pull up a decent Jew. Not as big as I wanted but decent considering the horrible conditions. Caught on a 4000 stella fe with 30lb braid. It weighed 9kg on the dot.

jaysondanielgraham Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Just a tiny bit over the metre mark. I lost one around that size on 4kg gear at Windang there at the bridge 2 weeks ago and i'm still burning inside. So well done on your catch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What killed me the most was they were getting them the following week and the week before I came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a GPS mark for a little WRECK inside the Ilulka wall on the river side, might try it up there next time. Speak soon Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tide'n'knots Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 nice fish mate 9kg is nothing to sneeze at! I feel your pain on losing the bigger one! I lost 3 big ones right near the boat at south west rocks about 10yrs ago and it still hurts to think about it. Even though I did catch a 20lber that night, the ones I lost were much bigger. At least you got one fish that was decent size, congrats. pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
