MINDARIE REPORT 20/5/2012 BAIT VS JIG

This morning me, duffy, and dad headed out roughly 30 kms from Mindarie to some ground that has always been promising. We were on the water at 6 am, and got to our first spot at about 7am. Sounded around at the first spot, not much action on sounder so we headed to a newer spot and the sounder lit up.

It was on bait(Dad) vs Jigs (Duffy,Me)

First drift I dropped my Lamble jig down and had a few hits, wound up and dropped down again to then feel something on the drop. I twitched up and dropped back down four times, knowing there was something hitting my jig. On the fifth twitch I knew I had hooked something good. Once it surfaced, I couldnt believe how big it was considering the small fight it put up. We put it on the scales and it weighed a solid 18 kgs

After a few happy snaps, we did a another drift with size dhuies being caught. through out the day we caught 11 Dhuies 2 Baldies and a Blackass (12 fish on jig 2 fish on bait)

Jigs That worked for us today where:

Lamble King Pink 165gm.

FCL Labo 120gm.

Yambal Craka 140gm.

Lamble Bait Kanpachi Haoli 110gm.

Lamble Flashing Haoli 11-/140gm.

All these jigs can be brought at Tackle HQ.

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.
