Pickles Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 We had friends for lunch on Wednesday (fish on the menu) and Mrs Pickles was bragging about her ability and prowess out fishing me. So I threw the gauntlet down and said, let’s nick down the river. It was already 6pm and a perfect cloudless summer evening (just enough breeze to keep mossies away and cool the air) and the Bass would be active on the surface getting their evening feed, so I was confident of 20 or 30 fish - How wrong I was, it seems it has finally happened and their annual schooling ritual of pelagic feeding on prawns has run its course and they have dispersed and headed up river. The pic shows the one and only fish caught in 20 minutes of fishing - and you guessed it, she got it (with the help of my Lab’ Rosie, so I guess it was 2:1). It was a creditable 38cm, I did however, give her the best lure and my favourite set up, but best to keep the boss smiling in order to get a leave pass when needed. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Good work there Bob, letting the wife catch the fish. The fish have to move away at some time, probably know your boat by now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfish Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Your a good man letting Mrs Pickles catch the one and only fish 😀.

Centrepin Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Great to see. My wife Evi is a wake up to the blurb about been given the best lure etc. Bob, We just have to defer to better skill. Geof 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big Neil Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Good onya Julie, no mean feat to beat the maestro at his own game. Well done. Fancy Bob having to say that Rosie was on your team too. What a load of garbage Bob. You were beaten fair and square. Would have been a lovely little outing for the 3 of you. Thanks for the post. bn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
