Went for a short session started at 2pm and left at 4pm to avoid the traffic!

 

armed with fresh school prawns and a bucket of burley, started my Hurley trap while I was setting up my rod. First cast and I was on!!! Bang, while I was reeling in my fish, I continued my burley,  and while removing the hook I continued my burley again!😂 hook out 2nd cast! And bang!! I was on!!! Anyone it was fish after fish, it stopped at 7 fish, for the next hour baby snapper came!!! Boring. Just 15 min before I call it a day!! Massive hit and Bang!!! Took off like a train. A Kingie.

fought for about 5min and had it almost to the surface and the guy next to me hand his net out, and say tire it out, tired it out!! So I gave it another chance to run around!! And I regret it! It went straight down the edge where I was standing…. The line was stuck.. and pop it goes…🥲🥲

 

next time it’s gonna be fast and furious. 8 lb line doing the damage

Nice one @papafish! It's funny that often you catch most of your bag in a very short period of time. Shame about the king, it would have been a nice addition to the bag if it was legal.

Was this in the harbour, the bay or the hacking?

Thats a top catch. 

Trevally are great fighting fish. Make great sushimi.

I guess the winter months is when trevally come to the estuaries
