ultimate shore based metro mack
So i just got back from work a day earlier and havent seen the the dogs for a while so i thought i may aswell
chuckem in the car and head of for a fish and a beer on the beach. Rocked up to my spot north of two rocks
mainly expecting atleast couple of herring. so fishing away trying to catch a herring to chuck on live on my
beach rod you never no whats out there couldnt seem to get one to beach. I was going to chuck out a mulie
but that would get picked to pieces. now this is whats so funny. I took up a heap of RAW CHICKEN SKIN mainly
for whiting (stays on the hook). So while i was waiting for a herring i put on a big chunck of
CHICKEN SKIN on my hook (8/0 circle 60lb mono trace dropper rig). It was in the water for about 15 mins while
i was still trying to get a herring with my small gear. Turned around and the rod buckled over and singing.
expecting nothing but a stingray picked up the rod and played him in until i sore it in the water
holly f#*# its a MACKIE land based metro on sicker rig on a chunck of CHICKEN SKIN.
Bled raped it up with a wet towl and headed home. weighed 17.5kg
Still smiling

However, you might want to keep it a secret that you "raped" it - people might get the wrong idea :)

That is just a mad capture. Chicken skin must be a first. I am now suffering locatin envy. Well done, pays to play all sing rays carefully until they are sighted stingray. Wow.
