tackleberry Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 So Thursday i got a biomaster 5000SWPG . so i spooled it up and went fishing . and headed off to lakes to give it a go on the reef and it would have been a cracker of a session if it wasn't for 7 bloody seals .their bloody smart buggers too they watch you and as soon as you stand up to wind in a fish they start duck diving to see where the fish is and then a good fight go's to an almighty solid powerful run and sammy has your fish i lost 13 fishin 45 mins pity as it was thick with them . and after an hour and 14 min all i got to keep were these 2 , i have never seen so many seals on the 6 mile in one spot . cheers TAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonD Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Try fishing down here from Narooma, doesn't matter if we are chassing kings at the island or deep dropping out wide the seals are all over us. It's completely changed the way I fish these days and many down here have given up fishing at all locally. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harold Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Get a pet white pointer, that will keep those pesky seals away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recurve Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Went out yesterday from Bellambi and were harassed by a whopper seal. Best thing to do when they come is pull the lines in and wait for them to bugger off. Only managed 4 snapper yesterday which was very very slow.

Drought Breaker Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 A Seal pinched a good fish I hooked on Saturday of Swansea. First time its happened to me. I managed to get the seal to the surface and then had to cut line to set him free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfishbig Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Get a pet white pointer, that will keep those pesky seals away. Actually happened to me. A seal was trying to steal a big trevally off my line when a 10 ft long bronze whaler shot out from under my boat and went for the seal, both disappeared, and i got my fish.
