Catch and Release:: Yes

Report:went down this morning to rock mark near sorento for a spot of spinning. its was a fantastic session, small pollock were hammering my lure from about 1. started off the day on an empty tide and used a popper to avoid getting snagged. a caught one launce and a small pollock on it. when the tide came in a bit i switched to a german sprat and all hell broke loose. pollock began a feeding frenzy and where taking my lure at the surface like marlins, ive never seen anything like it. there were demented. i made my way down to white rock to try for a bass but conditions became unfhishable
