cjchen Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) chasing the elusive jew takes dedication and i gave it my all......... before the school holidays i've got donnuts on 7 sessions. over the school holidays I went 8 times... and I think the dedication paid of... in these 8 sessions i've landed 16 soapies, with 5 around 65-70cm... and 11 around 55cm.... most went back into the drink... I got off early last week during the weekday, due to some time in lieu and tried down river and managed the 2 fattest jewies i've ever seen compared to the upper river.. they gave me the BEST fight over the 9 sessions, and I couldn't resist keeping them. They went well shallow fried with a pineapple salsa.. I can't thank one person on this forum enough because without his hints and advise, catching these elusive species would not be possible...

Robinsoi Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Great work, all your persistence and efforts have paid off well done Nice solid looking fish too Have you tried up under the Milperra Bridge and if so does your sounder indicate any drop offs or deep holes within casting distance from the shore (Liverpool/western side) thank you? I had a quick flick there land based not so long ago but got nothing Keep up the good work Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
