Mondo Rock Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hey Raiders Very long time no post - but had to put this one up. First really solid jewfish for me: 98cm, 8kg - caught Sunday on whole butterflied tailor at high-tide (noon) at the ever reliable Juno Point. Caught with the assistance of a guide so can't really tick off my bucket list but hey, it's still a good result.. At least one other good hit but no hookup. Mondo out.

Rah Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 A jews a Jew mate. Well done. Cheers Tara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike89 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Wow. I would say that is a fairly big jew! Excellent fish! Lucky for you you are 2cm shy of the magic metre jew so you'll have to get back out there and keep at it! Awesome stuff. Much of a fight? Are you land-based?

macman Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Nice fish, it was a huge tide! mUst have been difficult fishing there, nearly a 2 metre variation between top and bottom on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo Rock Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 Not much of a fight to be honest - got to feel those famous head shakes though. Fished the end of the run in so not too much current to contend with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo Rock Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hi Donna - yes it's me, still chasing he Jewish after our Pearl Beach adventure (10 years ago?!?!), although not fishing as much as I used to due to marriage, kids, work etc. Still fishing though! Bo - I'd be delighted to post details of the guide but not sure what the site rules are re such things these days. Can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondo Rock Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 PM sent - but as a general statement all the guides working the Hawkesbury/Pittwater/Brisbane Waters area are worth their weight. These are tough systems to learn and you get more out of a half day with the pros than you will learn in a year by yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Married with kids oh my I feel old now As Wellzy says pm for the guides.
