Return to Pinnaroo
With reports continuing to come in that the tailor were still on the bite at Pinnaroo, a few northern-based Fishwrecked members decided to head down there last night.
Steve (Sherbs), Mat (Mako Magic), Brendan (Brenz), Tackleshack Doug and his son and a friend, and myself, arrived about two hours before dark to find a light south wester blowing and a rising tide. Perfect conditions for tailor.
The few hours before dark were fairly quiet with Brendan landing a small flathead, Sherbs a ball on a rope and Matt a herring. Things started to improve just before the sun disappeared and the tailor started to move in. Unfortunately they were only appearing for very short periods, before going off the bite quite a long time.
Everyone managed to catch at least one fish, with Doug staring with three legal sized tailor.
With the bite being a bit slow, most of the crew gradually headed off, but Doug and I made the fatal mistakeof deciding “to give it another half hour”. That looked a good decisionb when Doug caught his best tailor, but then the thunder storm hit and we had to rapidly pack up with lighting crashing all around us and the rain bucketing down.
All in all it was a good night. The fish weren’t as hungry ad we would have liked, but it is always great to get out and throw a line with some good people.
All the best, Colin Hay

Group Fishing
Do you guys fish the packs when they are there? When I fished down preston beach with my mates, we would keep the fish hooked in the water, then cast behind it to get the followers. When the next person hooked up the first fish was brought ashore, then the cycle continues. Very good way of kepping a school around, tailor loves picking up the scraps of a hooked fish.

The fish were only biting very infrequently Three Lions
There didn't seem to be any large numbers of them around at any one time.
