Fishing with lucasss son!

Went out with luke yesterday (fishon570) aiming for a troll. Got to west end, and it was far too weedy. So decided to do some jigging.

The day was very slow, and the weather was quite average but still managed to get into a few fish. Luke got a decent baldy on jig which he called for a dhuie (never seen anyone so dissapointed to see a decent baldie come on board), along with a blackarse and a little pinky. I picked up a Blackarse and a sargent baker all on jig.

On out last drop as i was retrieving my jig, something smashed it mid was up. I called it for a sambo as it was making my 5000 stella cry, taking very fast and long runs. as it came to the surface we saw a tuna.

Cheers luke for another trip. been out plenty of times and never came home empty handed. Great bloke, mate and skipper.
Now its time for us to go to the Gym.

Peace out fellas.

 

Ps. Sherbs, i kept my shirt on in the Photos just for you ;)

 How did the stripey taste? I heard they're better cray bait than table fare, but good catch all the same.

Nice work Jeffree.

Seriously though, if that rat stripey was making your stella cry on repeated long, fast runs, you need to adjust the drag mate. LOL

They'd be a highly rated game fish! They fight hard for there weight. And if only we could get any metro tuna over 30........

anyways.. Nice baldy!
