Tommy Ruff Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Gday Raiders Hit the Harbour early Sunday morning with a plan to chase Bream and Trevally at a spot i know in Watsons Bay, anchored up using bait and I was getting hammered by small Leather Jackets, chucked a few lures around but no luck so decided to chase some Blackies as I heard of fish lurking around the Harbour, and I had some cabbage with me. Went to a spot near Middle Head, deployed the float, nice drift on the outgoing tide, the float immediately disappeared, and fish on. For the next couple of hours the bite was hot, landed 8, dropped a couple, kept 6 for a feed, was a great morning on the Harbour. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Brilliant effort Tommy Ruff - exhilarating to feel the pull of a solid Lud’ on light line. What lb line were you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Ruff Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hi Savit, I’ve been using a Gary Howard 10’6 Brembo 3W with a Sustain 2500, I’ve tried shorter rods but have found if the drift is long it’s difficult to set the hook 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Ruff Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hi Blaxland I meant to say drift of the float, not the boat😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
