Couple from the south
Submitted by Jack Dawson on Mon, 2009-11-16 11:33
Hi Guys,
Havn't posted in a while so thought I'd share some land based fish over the last few days. The lack of swell down here meant the groper fishing was amazing with plenty of good fish landed and released (a couple kept for a feed). Some good bottom dwellers such as harlys, queens and blackass were also picked out along with one decent sambo and an absolute dusting on 37kg from a monster Seriola of some description.
Hope you like the pics!

Cheers guys,
Goodz, it is a great spot, the first time I fished it but after the 10km round walk I won't be doing it again in a hurry.
SamC, Do me a favor and tell Chall to stop spending money on tight jeans and get down here to give some of that gear he has a real test!

PS the camera body is a Nikon D80 and I was using a 125ml lens, however I have just had the lens looked at and the autofocus has busted :( Gonna have to teach my mates to either use the manual focus or fork out for a newy...

Haha yeh... that's why it's such a good spot, no one can be bothered getting there! We were thinking of having a fish there a few weeks back when I was down, but conditions weren't going to be half as good as it looked like for you so we decided against it. Maybe next time, if you left any fish for us ;)
