1st time bag limit on jig
Submitted by Rosie on Sun, 2014-07-27 11:56
So I managed to get last Thursday off work.
Badly in need of some time on the water I headed up to Two Rocks for a solo mission. Determined to get fish on jig I left the bait at home. A lumpy morning turned into a nice arvo and managed, for the first time, to get my bag limit on jig only. Not big fish... but the sense of achievement was.
Even got some gopro footage.

You reckon
Do you reckon it was the same fish on that second hookup? First hookup looked a lot more solid than the second.
Good bag non the less!

Yep agree with scotto on that
Yep agree with scotto on that one. First time it hooks is a much more solid fish. I would call it being diffrent fish for sure.
Good bit of fottage. Love seeing the hookups.

Definitely. The first strike looked like a solid Dhuie surging toward the bottom.

Great vid!
If I was still a diehard baito, that footage would go a long way to get me to switch over! Also, any of the newbie jiggers on here could learn a bit about technique, from watching that...thanks for posting!

Video great job
The Snapper first strike looked good, the way it got your attention was funny. Boom, hookup. Well done.

Hah, you enticed me to put a caprice on that arvo too and nailed my first dhu on jig on sundown, albeit undersize. Cant complain with that sesh, who were you talkin too on that second fish tho lol
I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
