Young fella gets a dolly...

Good Friday wasn't all that good for us (not much caught) but my youngest lad got into the mahi mahi club with this little fella (oops, sheila!)...and none of that skull-dragging stuff either! He got it on ten pound gear and not without an argument...it jumped, it dove, it ran, it did all those silly things they like to do and he let it run, pumped and wound, and knew not to lift the head when it was time to net it. Mind you, he's had a bit of practice using the same gear on rat sambos off Mandurah and Jurien!

He had to be happy with that. Dollies can be some of the most energetic and exciting fish to catch so the young fella must have been happy with that.
