Peter Nelson Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Havnt posted for a while due to corona virus and moving house at the moment. But I decided to get my priorities right and have a warm up before the Port Stephens catch up. Took my nephew out and tried a few areas with a keeper and a 45cm model. Moved on to another spot and started feeding out a livey only for it to get smashed before the rod went in the holder, after a bit of a fight up comes a just legal king, landed a couple more the next drift. Set up our next drift and it was on, nephew gets a nice 63cm snaps, livey goes off and I get absolutely smoked, then my rod with the plastic on goes off, lucky to get this one as it swallowed it down and could feel the leader skipping across it's teeth, another 63cm shortly after a 54cm landed. Got dusted a couple more times and got a few big bonnies before the wind dropped completely off and the fish with it 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big Neil Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Looks like your "warm up" for the September event has put you on the front line of the grid, alongside Scratchie. Gunna be hard to sneak poll position from you guys but I reckon there will be a few trying real hard to do so. All being well it will be good to see how the experts do it. Till then keep honing your skills Peter, it's pretty to watch. Cheers, bn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were really on the bite than shut down as quick as it came on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Nice work Peter, sounds like a great day - I'm sure your nephew had a few good dreams that night. Nothing like the run of a string pulling Kingie or big Snapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
