First sound snapper

First sound snapper

Headed out yesterday arvo with the missus for squid and whiting and found a little lump on the way back in with some nice arches on the dragonfly. Result was 2 x 70cm Pinkies in 2 drops to christen my new Talica.

 

Not huge but a first sized pinky in the sound, only tried a few times!

 I was fortunate enough to see the Dragonfly in action on the first run squidding and cruising the wrecks, We were keeping a keen eye out for those arches that night I can guarentee it, good to see a plan come to fruition though:D

Gimme a call if you want to head out for any more night missions, im down!
