ALI-G Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Was out on the water for 5.30 pretty busy at Rose Bay Boat ramp though! Saw a couple of guys that had been out over night with a decent 8kg Mulloway, Nice! Headed over the Shark Island for squid with no luck :0( Then over to Balmoral, a few squid chasing jigs but no commitment. Then all of a sudden the bay came alive! there were bust ups everywhere!! decided to try a small Armour metal but only managed to hook two big Salmon one in the cheek and one in the side! good fun though, then who turns up but Al McGlashen with Marco Pierre White on board!!! Managed to eventually hook a decent bonito only to drop him at the side of the boat Grrrrr. Went back and managed to snag a couple of squid to drop at the markers only for them to be annihilated by fkn leatherjackets! They are like piranhas, they were even chopping my soft plastics up in to unrecognisable chunks of powerbait! what can we do about these terrors? They are everywhere, we even found em in open water thinking they were slimies. I hate em!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day's Fishin Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 If your not having any luck with other fish their always a good fall back and not bad taste either. Regards Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SargeRX8 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 How big are these leather jacket? Jeez I'd like to get amongst them and rip some up. Love eating them and compared to other fish, they are awesome to clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALI-G Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 They're about 5 in long brown and have beige horizontal stripes, if you drop anything edible in the water they literally swarm around it and demolish it in seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
