People:Me & Jack

Duration:2 hours

Tide:HW 23;00 ish

Weather:Windy and rough

Bait:lug and razor

Rigs:Pennell

Results:Me 0 ,Jack 1 Bass.




Report:Picked the young fella Jack up from school today and off we went.to be honest i cant get a fish at the moment but for Jack he has been pulling fish all week two bass in a week is good going on top of flats and coalies.The weather today was not great for fishing with the strong winds but we gave it a go.

i was on the lug jack on the razor the first good bang was to me and again no fish :roll: jack was useing braid on his rod and when he got the bite we all knew about it folded the the rod in half i have to say the braid gives some bite.after a few shouts from jack he started to get into the fish still had to get the fish over a bit of rough ground but he did land it without any help a nice fella around the 4 mark.he cast out again same spot and got a good pull within mins of the bait in the water but not so lucky this time no hook up.As it started to get dark we packed up and hit the road for home. he was a happy man on the way home in the car its great when the kids get a good fish.i think i was more happy than him for getting the fish good man jack keep at it :wink:
