South coast wanderings

 G'day all. I headed down south over the Anzac Day long weekend. Embarked on a huge trek to find some lightly fished ledges. Didn't really find the deep water I was looking for but made it to a likely looking ledge. A school of big, fat salmon were there all day, and all too willing to fight over surface offerings. This kept me very amused inbetween chasing blues. After chumming up with some salmon, what I initially thought was a small bronzy chasing my salmon, turned out to be a big Samson, who had some smaller mates. I picked one up on a stickbait and another larger model on a plastic, but the latter straightened the hook as I was trying to drag him up the rocks. Was one hell of a fight though. Also managed a little bluey for my troubles
