Well seeing as though i think me and KKW are the only 2 that catch any fish thought id better put a few pics and a breif report up...

Spent the first day on JB, went lookin for slimys first but no luck, did get one OS squid, which ended up as seal food.. Bastard. Bloody things just kept harassing us!!

Started a bit slow with a few snappy ones, just legal but let them go anyway, a few other reefies followed but still slow... Not far from us massive schools of yakkas started breaking the surface, so we got to the side of em and got a few on bait jigs and put out lives and BANG.. Got smashed.. reefed us a number of times.. No livies left we threw out some metal slices and pulled em around the school, same thing, smashed. starting to loose alot of tackle now! Finally we managed a 65cm kingy, took a pilly floating on 6kg and gave a great fight... Next I threw out a knife jig.. First time ive really had a proper go with one of these and within minutes, I was on, 30lb Fins braid and heaps of drag and i couldnt stop it, thought i was done again, after a minute the first run was over and started to make some ground, until he saw the boat.. 3 times i saw colour and he dissapeared to the depths again, then the seal came in for the chase, just as i thought he was about to grab him i flicked on the bait runner and let the king make a run, once clear i locked up the drag and put some real pressure on, as soon as the leader came to the boat i grabbed it and ripped him in as the seal made one last grab for it (see pic!)

Anyway a few pic...

Oh, the second day we had a few hours on the basin, 3 nice flatties a nice bream too...

And thanks Frank, Card works great in the Navman..

Well done Rumpus good to see you got a chance to get out.

Good one Rum. Is that dark shadow under the king, a blackfish trying to eat it? Rotten seals - lazy buggers should go and jig for their own rather than steal an honest fishos catch.

Brurry Irriot Wi Yu No Bridle up girly Fush & troll her ???

You thinks maybe marlins or tuna underneath chasing the bigger kings too maybe?

How did ya boat run today?? been waiting for ya call!

No

Didn't anybody tell ewe the blackfish grow hugus Giganturus down in JB & they eat girls

4got to tell Vern not to put big squid out as live bait
They'll only attract big hairy marlin

lost his bridled yakka to one as well!!

Yes it was a good day out Chaddo
verry good kingy you brought home
Netty loved her fight with a Kingy on very light rod 2-4kg with 8lb line
She did a top job getting it to boat (was about 55 - 60 cms)
your haines and polly certainly arnt 1/2 boats both did a top days work

Oh, ive got some pics of your boat pez ill throw up!

Been a long time since ive seen schools of bait like that on JB.. And there wasnt another boat on the bay.. Expected a few to rock up.. Didnt even see any boats coming or going from out wide...

Probably too rough for the plate boats!

Hey Big Potato

Very common with 1/2 boats

He cracked me up

Lucky boy right place right time & after that the plic wanted to steal your pliers

He said spud will never know

Spec Savers are having a massive 60% off sale

I strongly urge you to go get a pair else i'll have no choice & title ewe BATMAN

You should check for water in your boat Pez it looks a bit lopsided.

Throw that bloody big potato over the side

That'll level out the 1/2 boat

yes FED it was a bit lop sided
i will have to get netty to go on a diet
No in fact i had the fish box on my side of boat
and it was full

did i hear someone BURP
oh it was only ange

Tis not netty who needs to go on a diet

The big potato does

Netty didn't break the seat on mini me some other whopping big thing did

Well we hit JB on sunday morning, had an early start and im guess that Verns Shirt is BAD LUCK!!

There wa bait everywhere in JB, Yellowtail and slimys!! All over the place.. Couldnt hook any of them though. They would swin straight past the bait jigs, straight past prawns and bait, straight past lures, I didn manage to hook one on a metal spice but dropped it at the boat...

So with no livies we resorted to jigging the edge of the bait schools, no luck though.. At any one time there were around 3 of these schools, a few hundered meters apart, all bubbling on the surface..

Oh Well, Next time hey....

PS... Love the Lox Jigging Rods!!! Thanks Ange.. We will break em in soon....

There's a twick to using bait jigs
If bait is on the surface cast behind bait & twitch jig back
