67 cm Tailor from Metro Beach
Submitted by tyrone77 on Sun, 2013-05-05 17:06
Hi Guys,
Went fishing last night to my favourite beach (Burns Beach). Like I said last week. Top spot.
Anyway, fishing with a paternoster rig and a surf popper at the top.
It was about 5.30pm when bang, my 12 foot rod bent like no tomorrow. I caught this thumping 67cm Tailor. Biggest so far for me. Surprisingly, caught it on the surf popper.
Lately there has been a lot of Mullas, but this was a fluke. There has not been a Tailor in sigth at Burns Beach since March. Only Mulloway.
This is a sign to come for the winter months ahead.
Happy Fishing All.

Nice one Tyrone. The big ones have been around for the last few weeks. I've already had 2 over 75cm & a fair few in the 65-75cm range.
Just because I smile & nod does not mean I believe the crap coming out of your mouth.
All people have the right to stupidity but some abuse the privilege.

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
