last nights hillary bash no waiting needed lol
Well after watching the eagles in dispair me and my mates decided to go for a fish.We didnt really want to go to far but just drop a line in anyway.So after gathering some old scalies and prawns out the freezer we were set.When we got there around 7.30 conditions were really still not much of a breeze and the most part of one side to our selves.So we set up found a good spot to cast and set up hopeing for anything really as we just wanted a laugh and to relax.Well 10 mins past and i started to get some solid whacks on my rod so i watched in anticipating hopeing.But then nothing so i went and sat down again well as i did my mates rod next to me starts lurching around mind you to he had just basically cast and then bang it started running.So he runs over to it and starts fighting it but then it just starts going all over the place headshakes and all then it started going straight down the wall.Oh no we yelled as he proceeded to follow it but it then changed direction and came straight at him.We thought what a relief so he finally gets it to him in front of the rocks but it decided to go under the rocks we thought ping for sur being that we use braid But then luckily he managed to lift the line up and up pops a 1.25 metre and 7kg gummy shark. couldnt beleive it we wernt even going to go out tonight.
Made up fo the eagles losing we were stoked after that things went a bit quiet so i thought id chuck out one last prawn on my flicky to see what i could get.
Then whack whack on drag starts taking i thought this feels alright then after a short battle i pull in my first salmon trout just 34cm but a god fight all the same so all in all a good night here are some pics.
to fish or not to fish is that even an option?
