sunday 17th, time 4:30pm to 7pm
Took the new setup - teklon 802ml and technium 3000 - for the first few casts today. Wasn't expecting much, more looking for new marks for the coming season. Happy days though I sended up with a little schoolie on a feed shallow almost as big as him. Not big but able to strip line from the reel on a couple of runs when he saw me. great fun.
missed a bigger one that came clear out of the water at a patchinko but didn't come back for a second hit at it. next time.
had to pack it in as i was freezing from standing in a fog that came in and standing in cold water for hours
1st of the year
