denzor Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Hi Raiders, I managed to convince my mate to target Jewie's in the Georges River yesterday morning, we managed to get the run out tide and fished some nice holes using a 3 gram 3/0 jig heads with a 100mm squidgy Fish (colour is in the pic). It was hard work for the first hour and doubting we would get on..... than BANG!! as I was lifting my rod to give the plastic its action the rod loaded up and felt some good head shakes and a small run, I thought it was a half decent Flattie then saw some colour and then realised CRAP... GET THE NET GET THE NET!!!! my mate landed him first scoop!!. WWWOOOOOHHHOOOO It’s only a 55cm soapie but never the less my first Jew on a plastic and boy did it feel great, without dragging on I managed 2 more soapies one 56cm and the other 43cm released for hopefully me or another Raider to catch another day.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"> Can’t wait to get out there again and see if there are any larger ones around Cheers.
Guest hawkesbass Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Well done not a jewie virgin no more when i get bored of the harbour the georges will be on the agenda to get me amongst them
rjc123 Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Congratulations mate! Not big fish but to get 3 of them on SP is a great effort!
Sika Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Well done! I try and fish soft plastic for bream, flathead and trevaly and don't target jewies but always hope that I would get a jewie as a by catch.
paul.kenny Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Well done Battler and congratulations on cracking the Jewie SP code . Did you get most of the fish on the slack tide?
denzor Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 Thanks mate, yeah funny you say that I managed to get all three of them on close to dead slack and the three in 20 mins. Going out again this Sat to see if it wasn't a fluke
