I am in the middle of my HSC exams and thought a quick fish would calm all the nerve and get rid of the stress. I went down to flats rock beach as it is only a 2 minute drive from my place. I riged up and on the first class caught a 24cm bream. Things were looking good but they didn't want to play after that. I moves over to the other side of te beach closer to killarney point. I was casting my 2 inch grub around when the palce stated going crazy. There were boils everywhere. I thought that my 2 inch grub would be too small as the boils were really big. I hooked a tailor about 45 cm and a kingie about double the size followed it up. The tailor came off close to the rocks so another cast was quickly fired away. This time when the lure was hit ithad much more weight and power. It did a couple of spectacular aerobic moves then started slugging away. I only had a 6 pound leader and couldn't bring it up onto the rocks. I called my brother to bring a net down. It took him 10 minuted to bring it so i just had to hold it and hope it didn't come off. When i got home i measure it and it went smack on 60cm. Only my 3rd evey slamon and my biggest. Thats a years worth of bragging rights.
It looks like the pelagics have entered middle harbour. The king i saw was a monster and glad i didn't hook it as it would have buried me in no time.
For those who want to know, it was caught on a 2 inch bloodworm berkley grub. i was using a shimano
t-cuve XL, a shimano symetre, 4ld fireline and a 6lb leader
