Fridays fishing

Headed out Today for a in close bash with Hoju. Left Freo at about 7:00 and punched into some pretty nasty chop. Got to the spot anchored up and started to burley. Nothing for about half an hour until a decent hookup on my bait caster wich peeled line off like a train. After about 5 mins fighting Hoju hooked up and then we had to juggle rods to avoid tangles for another 5 mins. After a good fight 2 black tip reef sharks to about just over a metre each hit the surface. Trying to remove the hooks on the side off the boat resulted in both sharks busting the leaders and taking our rigs.After that pretty much every drop resulted in instant hookups on sharks with them hitting the baits on the surface next to the boat and even jumping clear of the water during the fight. We ended up hooking around 20 between us, loosing 15 rigs and landing about 5 each. I managed 1 under size snapper and Hoju 2 rat sambo,s and a decent Tarwine amongst all the chaos. All in all good fun in bad conditions and back at the ramp by 11:00. Well done Hoju hope you had a bit of fun cheif.

A bit of fun is always better than no fish and no fun, maybe next time. Well done anyway.

Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!
