Jurien Seas Sports Charter 29 August 2010 - 81cm Dhufish on 15lb

Jurien Seas Sports Charter 29 August 2010 - 81cm Dhufish on 15lb

Was out today with a lot of FW crew on Whitey's Boat. Very happy when an 81cm Dhufish decided to hop aboard on my new pe2 jigger outfit.

 

I'd had the rod and reel for months, but finally put the right line on it, to make it useable. Its a Eupro Salty  Fighter and a Daiwa Bradia 2500R with 15lb Tufline. The jig used was an Evergreen Caprice in pinky colours, unfortunately it was stolen from me by what was probably a shark a little while later .... load *snip*.

Yeah another nice big one

Sun, 2010-08-29 20:02

Yeah another nice big one came up on a mcarthy plastic, a lot of sambos, AJs and some smaller dhus were jigged up too.

 

If you check the fish's tail, its in very poor nick despite its otherwise good condition so it was released to the esky.

 

I also got a nice big goatfish on jig too, but we never got pics because there was a 4-way tangle going on at the same time.

Funny thing is Brendan, I was kicking myself I didn't get any 100g ones once I was using that outfit.

2x funny: I got the big goatfish on an all silver shout shab shab =)

That would be right, just a day after me bagging silver as a jig colour. I think the action is way more important than the colour.

Yes - there was a couple up

Sun, 2010-08-29 20:56

Yes - there was a couple up the back and he had a broken ankle, he did well as did she, especially on the pinkies, just he was a little slow to the bait board and back =)

 

Damn those pinks today, Dasho got a really nice one on a big gulp, then it was just bait after that.

Nice dhuie, especially on the light gear too. Must of put a nice bend in the rod and had the reel clicking away a bit.


Guessing that was the caprice 100g not the caprice kid?

When Darren gets home, we will probably get a few bent rod pics. The bloody sambos are hard work on 15lb.

 

I think that one was probably even the 130g.
