AlbertW Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Hey Raiders, Just typing this up at a fancy restaurant by the water, waiting to go back for jewies after dinner so I figured I’d do a live report while waiting. I arrived at my secret spot ready for jewfish the entire week, armed with my light snapper setup, a couple vibes and a dream. I started off at 6pm fishing Samaki vibelicous in 14g but had no luck, only a few small hook ups and bites from what I presume to be either small flathead or tiny soapies. Now getting ready to enter the restaurant nearby, I tied on the Alibaba ecogear rip-off I’ve been raving about waited. On the second cast I casted into the inlet of the place I was fishing. A couple lifts later… I’m so stoked to have caught a jewie on the first time I tried for them and on my birthday as well! I’m gonna go back to my dinner now and hopefully will report more in the next couple of hours. Cheers, Albert 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However there was some bream action on topwater, but no hookups 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birthday pressie is actually some money to spend on a fly rod, looking forward to paying the fishing station a trip with @DerekD sometime in the holidays. @Little_Flatty you have no idea how expensive textbooks are nowadays 🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkin Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) As a fisherman there’s always an ulterior motive when going to places with water near by well done on the Jew 👍 Edited June 17, 2023 by Larkin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
