First Snapper on soft plastic
Submitted by Fisheagle on Mon, 2015-05-04 08:12
After an unsuccessful trip out to the southern bank of Rotto, Nick and I decided to look for the Salmon in the Sound. During this session I caught my first decent Snapper on soft plastic.
I managed to go for an unplanned swim to retrieve my prescription sunnies in the process - see YouTube clip

Eat, sleep, dream and live fishing
The only vice I have and the missus does not mind. Missus knows that I cannot get up to too much mischief whilst fishing.

Dollars make you move
Just proves the point that money always talk. Going overboard in GWshark country for an expensive pair of sunnies. LOL.
