salmon

hey there pp i went down to eagle bay yesterday to do some salmon fishing with my partner an boy she was rapped when we got there an two cast in 10 mins resulted in her catching the first salmon of the trip then half an hour later after feeding bubs we got  double hook up an resulted both of us gettin them both in. Thanks to the lady that kept our son happy while we faught the fish. We ended up with three  salmon for the trip an one herring. 

The action down that way is still good but it has slowed down since the easter break but it was still nice to see ppl catching fish. I have never seen so many salmon lost though due to ppl not know how to up keep there gear an paniking when they have a fish on an try to skull-drag the brutes in something has to give an the fish will usually win but all in all it was still fun to see

I have some mates down Hamelin now and they said its been going off landing more than 20 fish a day from shore. Sounds like there are still a few schools around there. Hurry up and move metro fish!
