Narralakes Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Headed out into the Harbour today and it was action packed. Kings, salmon and tailor, but only mangaged to land some nice salmon, dropped quite a few. It was a perfect day, especially for flyfishing as there was only a slight breeze. Ive never seen the Harbour with so many schools everywhere, quite a few boats out early though, but still enough schools around. Fishing was hard today as the fish were very flighty and went down quick on approach, didnt get heaps, but managed a few, and I for one am very glad the salmon are still around. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest madsmc Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Good to hear you got onto a few Ken. Were you using a fly from the fly swap or something different? Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 Rob, looks good for sure, there have been plenty of good consistent reports lately, could get a little crazy on the water at times though, there were 6 - 7 boats around the same school at times, but things thinned out after awhile. Shane, I tried a few of the fly swap flies but they were very very picky today, ended up getting the two on an eye fly I tied. Tried about 6 different flies.

alexit Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Sounds like you had a good day Ken. I got my second fly salmon last week out near north head. A real workout on the 7#. The schools were picky also with lots of follows but no action on the plastic. I have a day off on Friday so I am out there to add to my total. alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 Well done Alex, they are very picky at the moment, but morning was better for hook ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluecod Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Well done Ken - hope to be able to join you before too long. BTW the angle you're holding that salmon at, first glance and it looked a little like that last mullet you caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 We'll get out there as soon as your'e free George, I thought it looked more like a mullet as well in that photo, if mullet were that big they'd go hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken, the best mullet I pulled out, many years ago, went a shade over 8lb, and the old 8144 was creaking and groaning under the stress - it sure would be a sight on fly gear.

sluggo Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Ken, care to tell us where the bulk of the schools were concentrated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narralakes Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 Sluggo, they change everyday, if you read Jason's report today they were around North Head, yesterday it was Middle harbour, around Dobroyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
