First Snapper ever caught-This morning Cockburn Sound with Beau:
Submitted by Moking on Thu, 2012-08-30 16:42
Went out early this morning with Beau,both on our Ski's. Just so good to get out on the water with the Ski's,perfect condition and to top it off I caught my First Snapper.
Thanks Beau for sharing your time and expertise with me, I had a ball just being out on the water-then to top it off the Snapper came on the bite. Yeah- what a great feeling seeing that first Snapper surface and get it into the net.
Then Beau hooked up twice on both rods...but I'll let him explain what happened and why he had to strip off and go for a swim!!!
Thanks again Beau....

Yep -Beau has pic's(but none of him in the water...)he most likely will post some pic's when he see's my little story about today.
And I'll add that Beau was in the water just as the sun was coming up-it was freezing!!!

Well done Moking
Suppose you'll give those poor whiting a rest now! Now you've got a taste for bigger prey!

All good John on the Ski-had
All good John on the Ski-had to use the net(from my kayak days),however I might have to get a bigger net,as the Snapper only just fitted into it!
You will have to organize a weekend up here, around Cockburn Sound in the near future. Would be good to meet up,and we have spare beds here and room in the garage for your Ski.
Would be good for all three of us to go out around the reefs and around the Islands...I can a least make sure you catch a herring or whiting
