Gnasher Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 launched from muddiford for the comp, and with only one day to play with, i thought id go back for the huss, and but also with a back up plan of a cuckoo and bream. Anyway, mirror water on the ledge, but I found the fish playing hard to find, no huss so plan 2, but only ballens wrass playing ball.... Then a tiny bite, that nearly made me jump out of my skin when i hit it, as the drag was up to tight, and the fish dived hard flat lining the rod, anyway, a decent wrass came to the net, that looked to be a 5 plusser....anyway, it wasnt weighed, and as i was perched at the end of the boat for the piccy, i got hit by some wake from a cruiser and dropped the thing over the side...you win some and loose some. A move just west of xray was the plan, where we landed dogs, plenty of bream, pout, maccy and some bonus smoothound. a nice day to be out.

Swainiac Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Tough at the top you old shirt. Good to see that you took trouble to fish even the one day Dan....hats off to you chap. A five pound Ballan this time of year is a cracker mate.............I bet it only would have gone three and a half. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnasher Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 probabbly right badger, but as i dont really like wrass, im not too bothered. it looked a proper lump anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
