bluejuice jigging
A few mates of mine and I went out on a jigging charter with Bluejuice today and I think they put on a good show. We caught approx 60-70 sambos which were released with either a release weight or with a spear, if any fish came back up and floated the skipper took the effort to go around pick them up and use a release weight. There were only low numbers on the boat with a couple of those falling to the dreaded sea sicknes, you have to feel for them as there is nothing worse. The weather was great could not have asked for a better day on the water. We only lost one fish to sharks which was to about a 3.5m mako. All in all it was a great day on the water with a couple of rods being snapped and a couple of reels destroyed but it was a hell of a day and well worth it.

great pics!
looked like a great day on the water - definitely some cracking fish caught in that lot.
For future reference though, the way the fish is being held in pic 5 is not very good for them. Holding them by the gills or tail "stretches" them and decreases their chance of survival - its always best to cradle the fish, particularly around the belly.
