Took the Kids Fishing

Took the young bloke and his cousin out for a fish on Saturday. The biggest fish the 10yr old cousin had caught was a 30 cm tailor...he was in for a treat. My young bloke wanted to jig some sambos, so we headed to a little lump that holds rats, handed the boys the PE2 gear and some cheap jigs and said go for it.....

 

Both managed about 8 sambos each in quick time including both getting a double header on 1 jig......jammy little pricks.

 

Wind dropped so we went a bit further and got a baldie, harly and pinkie for them to take home. Skipper kept the badlie.............

 

Good fun watching the boys getting worked over by the sambos. A few larger ones resulted in the odd jig lost but well worth it.

Nice work there.

I was just about to post about taking my family (2 boys and a seasick prone Mrs) out on Saturday for a fish & picnic near Garden Island, nice couple of KG's for dinner, then I read this post. Hah! I think I need to work on upgrading my KG's!

 

No doubt the boys loved it, and I'm sure they will remember it for a long time to come. Conditions Saturday were epic. Well done, and cheers for the report.

Great catch there john, good to see the kids out there catching..... keep up the good work, a few bucks for a couple of jigs is a small price to pay for the storys the kids will tell at school tomorrow. well done.
