sootopia Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 With the sea's being flat and the nice sunrise high tides went off the rocks for a fishing session with my young niece... the 2nd time she has ever been fishing as mum is not a fan haha. Baby sitting for some brownie points !!! Fished warriewood rocks as its a nice easy and relatively safe walk to the spot! Beautiful clear day with light wind and glassy seas! We saw lots of surface action with bonitos hitting the surface of the water. Landed a few for bait... caught on unweighted pillies and send out some thin strips on a paternoster. 8am: The tides on the way out and one of the bottom bashing rods goes off....set the hook and pass the rod over to my niece....5-10 mins later a nice 36cm snapper gaffed. re baiting and the other rod goes off this times shes holding it and the 2500 reel is screaming i quickly drop everything and tighten up the drag a little and after a long drawn out battle a tiny 45cm+ kingy is floating totally tired out on the surface. Don't they go hard on the light gear ! after a quick crash course in washing up fish onto a ledge she lands it for a quick photo, a kiss then back to grow bigger! My rod finally goes off... this time a slightly weighted bonito fillet...feels like a snapper but not very big ....... washes up as a 32 cm fish!... this guy was in close i normally get snapper on long casts on the bottom ! 10am: Pretty quiet as the tide is going out and the sun is high overhead...can see fish out wide busting up on the surface out of cast range.... worst day not to have the LBG rod to send out a live bonito for a king but cant baby sit 2 things at once! We get the odd bonito every so often but its getting hot and we are both hungry.....time for some 1$ frozen cokes from hungry jacks! Great day to bring a young one out fishing! with 3 pb's for her today.... bonito, snapper and a kingy. I think we have another convert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
