Took the Son in Law for a bottom bash..

Hi all
Had the daughter and hubby come up for a few day just prior to Christmas day..
Poor bugger (Ash)had to be back at work Christmas day.. Never mind..
So while they were up it was my job to take Ash out fishing and get him he's first ever sized Dhuie..
I have had Ash out a few times before and lets just say he's nickname after those trips became "Wrasseinator" ;-)
As they live down in Bunbury and he's favorite pass time is chasing Bream on 4lb gear, he has previously had trouble getting he's head around this bottom bashing caper with near 4lb sinkers... LOL
Well we cracked he's sized Dhuie drought with this nice size 9 keg 800mm male.. Albeit caught on a Wrasse that he had foul hooked but opted to leave it bouncing on the bottom for a bit..
The day totaled 4 dhuies, (2 Released) 1 Black Ass and also landed / released a number of solid mid size Sambos..
