PRO HART LEATHERJACKET
Went out yesterday with UncutTriggerInWA(aka Vince) and my nephew Major Mitchell(aka Shaun).
Was looking reasonable on the way out and we were keen to hit the 60's+. Half way out and you could see the wind coming across the water from out deep!!!! 5 min in the wind the first school showed on the sounder in 38m of water and that would do us!! Turned and couldn't locate the school but some flares on the sounder. Dropped the large gear down and Vince his NEW outfit(well worth the price paid) and he was straight into a nice plump whiting(yellow fin I believe). So did the same while Shaun persisted with the laeger(nothing there) a couple of good bites but no hook-ups!!
The wind was not going away so we decided to head in a bit closer!!!
A few drifts and a couple of sea anchor launches (there are some things a deckie just has to do)and thats just ONE!!!!! Vince hooks up to a nice fish and 5min later this beautiful leather jacket hits the deck!!
Couldn't get over how well it was painted up!!!!!
I got myself a nice KG but not much about!!!! Well maybe next time!!!!!!!!!!

Leatherjackets
Yeah thanks mako and the gear handled things nicely.
The Leatherjacket has been skinned and filleted and my Dad who is terminally ill will have a great fish soup for a few days. Many thanks to STAAL for taking me out.
Cheers, Vince
