Spring ended with a bang! Insane surf spinning session

Post by Fish-cador » Fri Dec 01, 2017 1:41 pm

Went to the back beach after work (Nov 30) and bumped onto the BJJ master (dougiek) who was carrying a tuna rod which he claimed to be GTSHoon's baseball bat. GTSHoon lost a bet yesterday. A tuna rod can catch salmon. LOL.

We found the school and we bagged out quickly. The school stayed in front of us in the shallows right on top of the reefs. The school's behaviour was probably due to the 2 seals harrassing them in deeper area. It was safer to be in the shallows! Good for us! :super:

I attached SP on top of my metal lure and I was hauling double headers on every cast. After I lost the SP, I was catching fish on bare hooks. Insane session. The school was literally at the edge of the water. I pulled my spare light rod and I had the best light gear surf fishing I ever had! :a_goodjob:

Dougiek and I agreed that it was the best session we ever had on the surf. We left them biting and jumping. My biggest went 2.6kg.

Good work lads! I got onto a big school of salmon a week or so ago off Altona. All around the size you guys caught and they were getting harassed by 2 big seals as well.

It always amazes me that a school of fish can be getting hammered by a couple seals and still take a lure..
