Couple from today
Submitted by beau on Mon, 2012-12-31 19:59
Had a fairly quiet day today. Was hoping for some tuna but the weed sent us off the bank and out to the 40s south of Rotto where we found acres of bait but not a bust up in sight. I managed my first reasonable sized fish jigging which I'm stoked about. My brother, the birthday boy, caught a sambo on waxwing, the strike was awesome, and I caught my first reasonable size sambo on a skip-baited tailor in the shallows.

What was the depth where you caught the fish? Did you troll or just cast?

Haha thanks aalfred. My younger brother took the photos of me and I took the photos of him. To me fishing and quality photos go hand in hand, I'm actually surprised there aren't alot more guys on this forum that have splashed out on quality camera gear with some of the fish they're constantly catching

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:
n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or
n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
