Two Days of Fishing the Metro
Submitted by monstaf1sh on Wed, 2011-09-14 21:12
Tuesday morning I went out with my mates out of cockburn and had a great day out there.
4 of us on the boat landed a good feed taking home 3 KG whiting each and a few other bread and butter fish, the biggest KGW was 46cm
I also caught my first fish (Skippy) on a flick bait so was pretty pleased with myself.
Wednesday went for a short flick in the Canning and landed my first Flatty and Bream on soft plastics! Yeah Boii!
Almost decided to keep the flatty but ended up releasing them both.
My confidence has grown using the soft plastics now that i know I can actually catch fish on them. ;)

Cant beat soft plastics mate.
Cant beat soft plastics mate. I must have caught thousands of fish on the things. Much more fun and less stinky than using bait...

I was starting to wonder if I was using them correctly as I had been messing around with them for weeks without a hook up.
They are definitely going to be a permanent tool in my tackle box.

Nice work guys. Top table fare there for sure.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.
