Busy-livin Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I knocked off work at a decent time today so I quickly hooked the boat on and off I went to oatley ramp and was heading from the dock at 5.. sweet! Planned to drift towra for flathead but the wind was going against the tide so it made things a little difficult so I changed plans and ancored a bit off the capt cook bridge in a nice hole and tried for my first jew! Within half an hour my rod buckled and I was on but didnt fight all that much and I got a glimps at the boat and I thought I had a huge bream! Wasnt I wrong... happily wrong! it went for another run and after I got the head turned up came my first ever mulloway and I was soooo stoked!! And im still buzzing ! it measured 49 cm well undersize but I dont even care I am just so pumped I landed one, got a happy snap and it swam off noce and healthy! Wooo After 2 hours on the water and a great sunset to watch I headed home with a massive smile haha wooo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
