Afternoon Pinks
Submitted by Ryan C on Fri, 2018-08-31 21:05
took my 11yr old son Jesse out off Hillarys this afternoon for a quick fish , launched the crusher at 12pm and headed to a spot in 12m down the coast a bit , got the burley trail going and the pinks came on hard , my son got 4 smallish ones on a paternoster and 1/2 mulies then one of my floaters went off with a nice 80cm model which went into the icebox , the young fella then scored a 66cm fish on his green gomoku rod which we kept for his dinner. I then had a double hookup with a pair of 70 - 75cm fish that were both released and we pulled anchor and headed in happy. Great afternoon with my boy.

Tennis balls
the tennis balls have an x cut in them and are to cover the gimbal while fighting a fish , easy to slip over and comfortable too! Cheers guys
