Christened the new rod
Submitted by still trying on Fri, 2018-01-05 08:16
Had a day on the shack attack charter boat out of Cervantes last week was abit of a tough day on the fish but the skipper tried to get us onto some fish we left 40 mins earlier than normal and we stayed over an hour longer than normal trying to get another dhu or 2. I did pretty well with my new outfit a finn nor offshore and penn battalion rod not expensive gear but its alot lighter than the penn 6/0 and broom stick rod i used to use. I caught 2 dhues at 75 and 76cm so i was pretty stoked. Only have a photo of 1 though which i got from Facebook.
