SP Session
With near perfect weather and good clean water, thought it might be a good day to throw some plastic around.
Started with an early run out to some wider marks to make sure there wasn't any good reds hiding out there Only a heap of these guys around So after feeding all my bait to them, headed back in close to see what might eat my favourite pink plastics. Also managed a couple of 'self-releasing' pinkies........and then these guys showed up again and ate everything that went near the water. Fun day.
Cheers Ian

Re: SP Session
That's a pretty good session, I wish I had the confidence with SPs to head out with just them and catch a bunch of fish
Those salmon would have been fun, we came across a pretty big bust-up off Cowes today but I only really had the 10-15kg kingfish rod which took some of the fun out of it

Re: SP Session
Nice work mate, plastic too big for pinkies that size though, if you want to have fun try going to 3 inch..

Re: SP Session
once you get the hang of it mate its quite rewarding and fun. i havent take any bait on my boat the last few years, except now if dad is coming along.4liters wrote:That's a pretty good session, I wish I had the confidence with SPs to head out with just them and catch a bunch of fish
if you get desperate theres always some squid you can catch to use as bait.

Re: SP Session
Yeah, I tend to keep them bigger when throwing them for flathead up against the shoreline for a couple of reason. The main one being that it tends to stop the puffers biting the tails off them.purple5ive wrote:Nice work mate, plastic too big for pinkies that size though, if you want to have fun try going to 3 inch..

Re: SP Session
Agreed. I actually wish they would not put that cr**py scented stuff on them. I'm certain it only attracts the rubbish fish to them when you are too slow getting them moving after casting. The sort of fish I target with them are all about the visual part of it. Maybe I could wash them first :rofl:purple5ive wrote:Ahh yes puffers and leather jackets love gulps.
