Hey All

My boys and I have been seeing and hearing of these huge Sman River blues so we decided to come up and have a crack yesterday.

Spend some time putting the long ropes on and we headed off. Was a nice morning on the water,well most of the time, more later.

We had a look along Blackwall Reach but here was already a boat working there so i thought we just move a bit further up stream. We got all the pots out along Mosman Park in about 18mts and started getting some on the first pull. Old mate that was crabbing at Blackwall decided to move up near us so i shifted the past five pots of our string back and had two strings of five.

Was all going well but our new friend kept on sticking his pots right next to ours so we moved five further upstream past the yacht club.

When we got back to the first five pots our new friend had his in between ours so this was when i lost it and offered some detailed advice on potting ettiquite and a few other things.

We had 15 by this stage and decided to call it a day.

Well the forecast for this morning was looking pretty good so i talked the young fella into getting up at 4 and heading out to see if we can grab a pinkie.

Got out to The FFB and anchored up and in went the burley,which was a blend of old blue macks,crab scraps and old bread put thru a mincer.

Didn't take long for the first touch which turned out to be a nice little Black Arse. This was quickly followed by the first of two nice pinkies.The firts one went 70cm and the second one went 65cm

These were a good workout for the Pe 1-3 AJN Jigging Jacks.
