jigging the derwent
Submitted by brenz on Thu, 2009-01-08 16:14
went out on saltwater charters today to go hit the derwent and test my new pe 8 xzoga and trinny dc jik lah combo. when we got there the conditions were no were near perfect and as i couldnt be assed dropping 40oz of lead to hold bottom i decided to jig , resulting in a rat sambo and another that was an estimated 22 kg wich was a workout in 200m. the boat managed many snapper skippy and black ass wich going by the conditions was a credit to the skipper to find the fish for every 1 . great boat and great crew highly recomended.
cheers brenz

Nice work Brendan
I guess by your report the Trinidad handled the jigging quite well. Sounds like that's a pretty good charter to keep in mind too.
