Submitted by fishentology on Tue, 2013-05-07 10:58
Headed up to cervantes on saturday arvo for a couple of days since the weather looked good
got up there around 5.30 headed down to the beach thought we would try to catch some fresh bait for the next day
out in the boat. for some reason no tailor or herring around so got out the cast net
and caught heaps of little mullet 10-15cm. so i decide to chuck out little dead mullet on the
drop off (if anyones been to cervantes they would no where im talken about) 10 mins
and rod was going nuts 20min battle on 2000 stradic 8lb line one of the best fights ive ever
had. finally got him to shore first big mullaway. You little ripper
Went 15kg

on any gear that's a great catch. on that gear, exceptional work
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.

Probably worth submitting that one as an individual image for the photo of the month comp. Quality effort and photo.

for sure
That would get my vote. Even with the completely absurd and totally irrational number of Mulloway around at the moment that is a good one, good instinctive reaction to the bait and 8lb is bloody cotton. Can I ask what rod ?

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
