Headed down to Port Melb pier for a quick session with SP's in the hope of catching a few salmons.
First cast and the SP gets slammed and I think im onto a big sambo to find out its a 60 cm pike!
First one for me on a SP land based so I was quite pleased :super:
Cheers
LX

Good catch lightningx! I've never done well off port melb pier. How was the fight? I've never had a decent fight out of a snook.

All I can say is I'm happy I had a stiffer rod or else I wouldn't have been able to pull it up onto the pier lol

Nice Snook, the head is a good bait for big Snapper.
