weekend fishing off the south coast stones with some epic catches!!

Spent the weekend fishing the rocks around albany. 
saturday the plan was for a sambo or kingy, first spot we went to wansnt flash so we moved and the next spot was much better. got a few small things and a salmon before jimmy has hooked up on the 30lb setup and his little 6000 stradic is singing away. after lots of freespooling and gaining and loosing line and somehow keeping it away from the heavy reef this unknown finaly tired out and we got the first glimpse of it after 40 minutes and its broke the surface!! HUGE SAMBO!!!! we where stoked, got it up on the rocks and what a monster, jimmys first sambo off the rocks and a very big pb to beat. 148cm and 28kg.

sunday we did a bit more exploring at new spots and Aron has picked up his first queeny off the stones along with a lot of other fish we caught on plastics throughout the arvo. another good weekend on the south coast just cant wait for the next now.

Top report as usual. Good sambo especially and the queeny is not something you see too often from the rocks as well.

Great Sambo!

What did he take?

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

 Jealous! Look forward getting back down there for a fish, dhuie from the stones is next years goal!

That's the calmest I've seen that spot you got the sambo!!! Some good water there and many good fish landed over the years.

 Lb dhuie isn't as hard as you might think. Walpole way there is some very good spots to try. We have only got little ones but a big one is on our list to get on plastics or jigs off the rocks.

 Shhh don't mention the "W" word. I grew up there and know where the Dhuies hide just haven't got one myself. My old man has landed a few including an 18kg specimen.

Walpole is an awsome area.

Walpole is an awsome area. Decent nannys, snapper, dhuies, and groper from the stones. As well as the palagics. Cant wait to get back down there with the boat and try from that aswell.
