Toddlers first Tailor trolling in tinny

Went for a troll with the prego missus and young bloke in ideal conditions, water was crystal clear and the tailor were aeronautical smashin little poppers. Brock christened his new rod whilst in hand got a good strike and hook up and boated for a photo (had a little assistance with the reeling in). Always plenty of these 35 to 40 cm choppers around, kept a few for a feed and released the rest, great fun on light gear.

Great work getting the little bloke into some fish, nothing better than having the family out enjoying time on the water.

Great stuff. Try turning the camera flash on. Even on the sunny days it often gives a better (more exposed) picture.

Yeah thanks guys, he's getn

Mon, 2012-02-27 19:17

Yeah thanks guys, he's getn good at it, rod in hand hooked into a nice bream the other day and only had to support the butt and he reeled it in, they learn fast. Being a parent, husband and fulltime worker means I want to use my spare time as best I can so buyin the tinny means I get my fishin fix and spend time with them and they love it, dunno how long I can put up with the missus out fishn me tho.... Na I love seein others hook up and feel the excitment, takin home a feed further increases the enjoyment allround too. Wanna get into some  Kgs now, need some help from fellow members........
