nat Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) launched at alfords point yesterday armed with the usual arsenal of plastics and hard bodies. started flicking the last of the runout at the bridge with 3/8th ounce jigheads & 5 inch powerbaits in hope of a jew or some flatties for a feed. picked up 1 keeper flatty after about 10 minutes then flicked for another 30 minutes with no sucess. moved on around the corner to work the sandbank and opposite bank with 100mm bloodworm wrigglers. we worked our way around until on the rocky side just on from the bank I had a solid strike which immediately started to strip line from my reel!! after a brief fight little bro managed to net this nice specimen. after that we pushed on down stream to fish tom uglies & captain cook on the run in tide, again flicking flicking power baits. but the wind was well up by this point & starting to get frustrating. So we slowly pushed back up stream trollin hard bodies and flicking the odd wriggler with no more success. below is a pic of my brothers ep a week ago from the upper reaches it went exactly 35cm to the tail same as mine. cant seem to find these jews in the georges!! anyone else out yesterday have any luck??

paul.kenny Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Excellent EP there Nat, they are my favorite fish this time of the year. They are a powerful fish for their size and if you find an active school they provide a hot session during winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
