Hey there fellow fishwrecked members my name's Christian this is my first post as i just joined today but i thought id share my most recent memorable capture.

The call was made after hearing that a few mullas were being landed after the storms, to go put a few hours into catching one. choosing E-shed as our preferable spot we decided to get there nice an early as we heard a few had being landed there over the previous week and knew it would be harder to get a spot later in the evening. We arrived around 5.30 and got our spot and rigged up using packet  scalies for bait that we'd bought earlier. 

After a while of peaceful livie fishing catching mostly yakkas and snook one of the rods went off. Oh the excitement but wait RAY! ah damn!! so the line was cut re-rigged up. A short time later my mates rod screamed off and it was his turn to catch an angry ray.. This was to be a common occurence as over the next 2 nights we hooked about ten and saw many more rods in the distance going off all to rays.

Then came night 3 this night was to be our night but it was funny that it only came by chance that we ended up at E-shed AGAIN! We had decided to fish for tailor earlier in the night but having no luck catching one I made the call that we should try for mulloway again. so back we were again at the wharf rigging up and catching livies. After a while my rod went off but slower this time than the other nights, i gave it a lil and attempted to set the hooks but i missed... shoot. Bringing the livie in i noticed its head was missing and instead of changing baits i cast it back out in the exact same spot. This payed off as five minutes later my rod started to tick slowly again i gave it plenty of line this time before i set the hooks and this time i was on and this was no ray( although no one believed me i called it straight away) this was different, every 10 seconds my rod would thrash as whatever was on the end of it tried to shake free. After about ten minutes of strong runs with plenty of head shakes and a tangle that almost proved costly we got a glimpse of my first mulloway and was she a beautie. then came the next problem landing it and I'm so thankful we still had the 14ft gaff in the car from the previous nights( also thanks to the guy who gaffed it for me i couldn't of done it better myself). 

And there it was 1.2m and at least 15kg of glistening silver i couldn't believe it i was so wrapped and i still am now i just gotta catch my mate one he was a lil devo as id caught it on his rod which i was using for tailor earlier in the evening, ah well there's always next time..

 How stoked am I:P
