hillaries today
went down to hilarries for a fish and to test out my new spinfisher 950. first casat with it, turned away for 2 minutes then had a run on it
i got to it then thought it was a small skippy by its fighting. i brough him in slowly then an allmighty tailcrack and he was taking drag like a bat out of hell. stopped him then brought him in till i saw colour......PINK
hit the surface........6 kilos of pure PINK. my dad then rshed down the rocks, grabbed the line, was about to grab his tail because i forgot my gaff and one last tailslap and he was back were he came from. i was spewing and i could have almost cried. ther was also a few yelowtail kingfish around and one was landed at 50cm and i almost hooked up to several that would have been close to 2kg-----on 2lb gear :P plenty of herring aswell but they werent the best size...good for bait though. im styill spewing about the pinkie but it happens

nah i didnt hook any myself
nah i didnt hook any myself but i had some serious hits then they would bugger off for 10 minutes. first time i have seen em crusing singly close to the rocks. i have seen em swimming in bigggg schools within casting distance and people call em salmon. i actually called the first one for a salmon trout but it clearly wasnt as it hit the surface,
