Krispy ! Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Headed out at 6 in the morning for a few hours relaxation so grabbed a block of pillys and away I went. Arrived on location and burleyed up and on my first cast I hooked something decent but the line was frayed from a previous trip and it snapped as soon as the fish took off. Re rigged and went back at it. Whilst re rigging my other rod buckled and after a short fight up came a small salmon going 48cm. In the next half hour I caught another two salmon roughly the same size all of which went back into the drink. It died off for a couple hours after the peak high at 8 am and it wasn't until 1030 that I got my next hookup which took me by surprise. A cormorant happened to swim over my line at the exact time my rod buckled, I thought nothing of it and was about to turn away when the cormorant got startled by the line and flew away and my rod was screaming. I quickly ran over and the fight began, I immediately knew this wasn't one of those small salmon, this thing was taking a lot of line and lunging down deep so I gave it as much stick as possible and managed to turn it. A few tense minutes later I netted a 61cm kingfish Unfortunately undersize so back it went, got another 2 salmon then called it quits A top morning on the water, cant wait for summer!!

fragmeister Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm with you Krispy, Can't wait til summer but still a pretty good result. Nice to see the rats are still around through winter. The populations are certainly building up. cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
