Nick1987k Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Headed down to belambi this morning to try our luck at the snapper again . Went to our usual marks , plenty of bait on the sounder so anchored up . After a constant burley trail we had several livies in the tank . Fished with squid an flesh baits on snelled rigs . Rod buckles an pull up a nice 2kg red . Stoked bout hour later I decided to butterfly a yellowtail on a snelled rig an cast it out. 15min later my rod buckles drag peeling . Set hooks an fight the fish for good 15min . Up comes my PB snapper 72cm going just under 5kg . Stoked to say the least . All uo ended up with 6 reds an a nice gummy shark .

paulk001 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Beautiful red , well done! What was the swell like there this morning? Judging by the photo it looks a lot less than the 1.5 - 2m predicted on BOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_ Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Quality Snapper mate. My young bloke got one 75cm and just on 6kg the other day on a charter and he won't let me forget that I've never got one that big! Just by listening to him I know how stoked you must be. Well done!

Aqua Naut Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Damn thats a great fish.....I still to this day cant workout why we dont see anything like that around Botany Bay.....Botany Bay was such a great place for Snapper but never ever see anything worth keeping in it anymore. Looks like just have to travel abit to find the fish. Good catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
