Got smoked but landed 2


Recommended Posts

Hay guys been a long time since I was on here last. Just looking at some of the posts and man some great catches and congrats to everyone.

Went for a late night session last night flicking soft plastics down at Windang. After a very slow hour with only 2 flattys landed all hell was about to brake loose.

Half asleep from lack of action I get a solid hit thinking that it was a small Jew but ended being a nice 40cm+ flatty. Next cast on again with another 40+ specimen.

Then goes quiet for 10 mins then whack my 6kg rod buckles over and drag screaming of the little Abu reel. After a short fight I land my first Jew for winter 70cm. Then for the next 12 or so casts I got smoked 6 times by some things that I could not stop from getting under the bridge. After rigging up again I'm on to a little 53 cm Jew.

It swallows the lure deep so while I was trying to get this out some guy that was watching jumps right in and land a 80cm keeper. Next cast I get snagged and loose my plastic it was getting late so of I go with 4 good flattys and 2 Jews for the Tom yum soup..

I'm suggesting it would have been a couple of really big jewies! Nice catch btw!

Cheers scratchie!!!

You really seem to have that bridge downpat. What size jigheads do you use if you don't mind me asking.

A friend and I tried a bit further down the corner at the rocks at the tourist park as well as from the rocks at the mouth a few weeks back and found that even with 1/4 jigheads we couldn't get to the bottom as the current was quite strong. Maybe it's different a bit further up at the bridge where you are.

Thanks.

Were you under the bridge or on top. Cause how the hell would u bring that beast up from the bridge. Well done on your catches. That bridge looks pretty empty, no cars = no eggs. You really have windang worked out.

Yeah no eggs mate. Yeah was on the bridge and had to bank them one they spent all their energy.
