Swainiac Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 (edited) Squeaked out this personal best Ballan, of 5lb 4oz, this morning, during the species comp...shame it wasnt a specimen hunt!!! took ragworm, on a size 6 hook to 15lb line, on a slow drift. Edited June 25, 2006 by Rich J.A.W. Quote
Newboy Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 Nice fish Rich. By the look of the background you're in the harbour. Quote
Swainiac Posted June 25, 2006 Author Report Posted June 25, 2006 PJ, I nabbed it on the rod that you bought for Rocky's Ryan for his birthday........went like a train, I was sure it was a Bass!!!! Rich Quote
Mike Fox Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 Brilliant fish! I've had them to 4lb there, and been broken up by bigger ones, so knew a specimen was on the cards! Well done. Mike Quote
Gnasher Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 well done ricardo.....nice fish...get it in the book......i hope we dont get to see your ugly mug in the mags again though Quote
Swainiac Posted June 26, 2006 Author Report Posted June 26, 2006 Watch this space, Big Gay Bear........already E-Mailed 'em!! Rich Quote
CREZZ Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 Luverley fish Rich , Don't suppose you could give me a clue to where you caught it , I'm new to this boat fishing lark and need all the help i can get . Fishing in the harbour is about my limit at the moment so any clues would be appreciated . Andy Quote
Paul D Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 Nice fish Rich, what beautiful colourings as well. The ones on XChurch ledge have much plainer markings on them. Quote
JIMBOB Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 What a fish Rich, I just realised its in Poole harbour! I just assumed it was at weymouth when I first saw the pic. Super result. James Quote
Swainiac Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Posted June 27, 2006 Andy Jimbob, yes Poole harbour, not a squillion miles from the usual drift for micro wrasse, pollock and pout, with the occasional schoolie thrown in. Rich..........Oh, andy, you have a PM chap. Quote
