tailor time

the tailor were firing on the wkend at my local beach in hillarys, they came on the bite after sundown and were all a decent size (35-45cm) but no greenbacks.

good to know you can still get a decent feed close to home.

 

cheers

Good effort anyway. Can't remember the last time I caught a fish near hillarys worth keeping!
