Burnsy Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 I got up before the sun and headed up to Cowan Creek to catch the last half of the run out tide on Sunday. I spent a couple of hours in pristine conditions working my way along the rock walls with the electric and throwing 2" watermelon hawgs at any cover I could find. The day started well with a respectable fish on the second cast and ended with a Pb of 40cm. Three fish in all, with a few missed bumps along the way. Each of the fish came from on the edges of large submerged rocks that were in around 10ft of water. Sorry no photos as I don't own a digital camera yet.

Burnsy Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 Yeah, I was Breamin. I used a 16 ounce jig head. The retieve was just letting the jig sink, slow lift of the rod, then repeated with a couple of quick double taps. Most of the hits came about half way back to the boat. It is bloody good fun on light tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jewel Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 What are gear are you using? Im guessing a Tiagra 80w and a rollered bent butt? Are you actually hooking them or just knocking them out!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnsy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 Dulp... that would be a 1/16th... I think a stand up 130 might be needed for the 16 ounce jig heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
