Luderick Hunter Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Hey guys fished my usual spot at Tuross today, Arrived 11am and fished the last few hours of the falling tide (its 3-4 hours late there) I only got 3 small fish on the run out, once the tide turned the fish started getting bigger and more frequent. Ended up with 17 fish including a 44cm, a 45cm and new PB of 48cm. released the big ones and small ones and kept a few in the middle for a feed. Where do you submit pics for the records section?

Luderick Hunter Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) Thanks guys, It put up a great fight, was like hitting a brick wall when setting the hook then constant weight and thumps. The following drift I got the 44cm it went totally berserk on big runs. I really thought I had cracked the magical 50cm the way it fought.John Edited November 3, 2014 by Luderick Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luderick Hunter Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Thanks everyone for the congratulations. As I side note we used to fish Tuross many years ago and have always got good catches of Luddies there, but they were just normal estuary size fish between 30 35cm, I dont know if these bigger fish are a by product of the lake being declared a recreational only fishery about 12 years ago or if its just a coincidence but we seem to be getting several fish in the mid 40's each session now.

Ryder Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Mate I think the commercial license buy back has improved rec fishing everywhere. I don't mind paying for it, we are definitely seeing the benefits. I do know one young fellow who is asking me 'where is Tuross?' Bring on the 50.
