metro tailor sesh

I decided that I needed a new rod for tailor and for when the salmon get here (if they do get here).

So I popped into work today and bought myself a Heartly Rise SeaBass Force 8'2" 6-12lb rod for chucking arround lures.

I fitted it with a Shimano Twinpower 4,000, grabbed some stickbaits and headed down to a local reef to try out my new rod (didn't really expect to get anything).

I started flicking arround some metals (b!oody he!!! this rod is an excellent casting rod) and scored my self some small Snook.

I then changed to a Blues code stickbait and flicked it out to where some bait fish were fleeing accross the surface, I instantly hookind into a nice tailor, after a nice fight, i had a tailor of about 45cm on the reef.

For the next hour, the tailor hung arround, free jumping and smashing the bait fish infront of us.

We ended up hooking about 30 tailor (some very decent ones) but only landing 7.

I ended up with 5 and my mate, 2.

The best lure was the Blues Code sinking stick bait.

It was a good change from the usual river fishing that I have been concentrating on recently.

cheers, tom

all fish released except 2 that I smoked for dinner.

Pics are added Tom.  You need to make sure you resize the photos down to less than a megabyte and take the # out of the filename as the site doesn't like hypens and commas etc.
