Garrybeynon Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Went for a flick after work, keep the rods in the car and mostly fish plastic and lures. So if I have a spare 30 mins I'll go fishing. Had 4 pound leader on with motor oil grub and a 1/12 jig head so was targeting bream. Got a few small bream then kept feeling a bit or something on a slow roll retrieve but no hook up. Decided it was squid so threw on the squid jig and bang got one first cast. I fish with a rod and a back pack and don't lug a bucket or esky etc around so I can cover more ground till I find the fish not vice versa. So threw the squid back, looking at targetting kingies soon so catching squid will come in handy. Walked a little further around to a little wharf and started casting and retrieving with a drop and lift technique something smashed my plastic and went for a good run straight away had the drag set light so took a bit of line after that it didn't take anymore and came in easy the smallest jew I have seen but still a Jew.

big Neil Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Amazing how so many of these "spontaneous" fishing trips come up trumps. Well done young man...absolute basic gear yet still getting good results. Good pictures too. Cheers BN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lungfai76 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Cracker of a fish ? I too fish with just a backpack, but my backpack has a small cooler/esky fitted with a 5 litre bucket. Esky has a top flap for easy access. When I go for a quick fish I stop at one of the hundreds of Mac Ds and ask for a cup of ice (usually free) and my fishing setup is complete. Good for when you get a pan size for dinner. I also have a 10 litre backpack setup for when I chase pelagics but that involves filleting as it's hard to fit a full sized fish in ?

RexSenior Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 That's awesome! After 25 years of fishing my first Jew came about 2 years ago. If the taxidermist was willing to work with an illegal catch I would have had a serious decision to make! (Joking of course). Well done, Cheers, James.
