Cockburn this evening
Submitted by southcity104 on Thu, 2009-06-04 21:18
Headed out this evening to sound some faithful ground in the sound. Anchored, berlied and worked a range of rigs out the back. The herring were plentiful, large and taking supprisingly large baits intended for snapper. Amongst the herring were juvinille samson fish which fought hard and quite colourful. Below the herring and juvinille sambos were even smaller snapper barely reaching 30cm, plenty of them which was encouraging! We finished up with an easy dozen herring and three tarwhine 35cm -37.
We did notice that all three tarwhine were caught on a very light outfit with fluro 6lb leader
Anyways- on the pulse, but no snapper tonight
