Fishing oz style _ Fishing Reports _ Fishing - April Fools Day

Posted by: Majed Apr 1 2008, 11:32 PM

Hey Guys,

Went out for a quick afternoon session at my usual spots again. Weather was perfect with hardly any wind and calm waters.

Had some issues initially with the outboard not starting, which thankfully only turned out to be some water in the fuel tank.
(this was from the storm over the weekend)

Arrived in the water at 5pm and headed to spot 1 which was quiet. After half an hour, moved to spot 2 where we remained for the next 2 hours...

After about 15 minutes later a boat arrives near me with the driver yelling out, is that you Majed...lol and behold, it was the one and only Jumpus himself with Dave (Catch22). It was the first time we have met in person. We had a good chat and i got lots of tips about boating and fishing.....i didn't have much food on board so i threw across to Dave an omelete sandwich. Next time hopefully i will have some homus.... smile.gif smile.gif Thanks guys for a great chat.....hopefully we can all go fishing as a group....

I was with my dad and my cousin Ahmed.

Ahmed boated the first fish which was a 36cm flathead....then we started to bring in some nice Bream which were from 27cm to 31cm. We also bagged a couple of nice Trevally's around the 33 - 36cm mark...Ahmed also hooked a huge flathead which was really fighting. I got the net ready, when it popped its head out of the water and went bersek and unhooked itself. Boy was Ahmed filthy on losing it. mad.gif mad.gif He was adamant that he would hook it again.
I could not believe it, the next cast Ahmed hooks it again and this time it was netted. It was a beauty 65cm flathead which weighed 1.6kg. smile.gif

All in all we had a top quick session which gave Ahmed a nice 4.5kg feed....... smile.gif smile.gif
This time i had witnesses to our catch.....just ask Jumpus and Dave....Thanks also for the pics....

I am pretty sure it was from the rain as the tarp let in lots of water neart the tank and it mught have got in via the breather in the cap...

Stop telling porky's Majed laugh.gif laugh.gif

We got you a beauty B4 you realised who we were laugh.gif

Yes Peeps Dave & I were in uniform we were wearing our hats which had our official Identification logo on them

Velly Impotant Villans Association

I asked to see Fishing Licences , Drivers Licence & Proof of ownership of the boat Majed just stood there opened mouthed for a couple of minutes until he read my boat name & that's when he jerry'd laugh.gif

Now Majed was telling the truth about Dave stealing his food told you's so & here's more proof

Dave brought his own lunch bag this time onto the boat told me it was just a snack



He even tried catching the baits the boys were trying to cast out cause he liked chicken



Yep Yep peeps while we were all busy chatting away there was Majed's dad doing the sneaky sneaky on us catching all the fush laugh.gif

But have to admit I've never seen 2 guys get so exited when Ahmed got that flathead for the 2nd time right on sunset think he was actually dancing with Majed laugh.gif

Onya Boys good to have caught up with you's

Majed is the one with the pointy head. The one with the rod in his hand.

See we have another source telling how excited Majed gets when he lands a fish.

I am not too sure how Ahmed goes when he fishers.

Posted by: Christos Apr 2 2008, 02:32 AM

I should say to Majed well done on your catch before we get too far in bagging him.

I must say that I got two stories of the meet between Majed and Jumpus.

I spoke to Majed this morning and I met up with Jumpus this afternoon. Very good yarn on a number of topics. One of those topics was Majednised. laugh.gif

Majed, do you buy your fuel from the same place as Jumpus? he was having that water in his fuel problem. I used to live in Brighton- Le - Sands many moons ago and back then there were some dodgy petrol stations.

I buy my fuel from Henry Lawson Dr Milperra. Never had problems.

Water definitely got into the tank via the breather in the cap when the tarp collapsed into the boat due to the volume of water from the storm over the weekend.
