Hey guys, Im new to this but a great website to read while on a lunch break.
Anyway I was at Windang about a week or 2 back and caught my first PB on a lure. The pics will basically show it all, but from the 12th cast on my raider lure I felt a weird bite on the braid, felt like a snag and then chik chik booom, it fought like a housewife at a end of year sale at myers. It fought for about 5min then it just drag. Couldnt figure out what it was (could've been a snorkler at this point) but after getting the first site. It was a shark, thought it was a reefy but all of a sudden it did its death roll and saw spots and stripes....SH!T its a Tiger, on a lure, at Windang, where I swim were the words going through my head and also how the hell im gonna get my lucky lure back.
I then drag it to the beach and pulled it out of the water, by this stage I left a burley trail in my board shorts coz it scared the hell out of me. ANyway got it to the beach, some random fisherman gave me his knife and I had to cut the line coz there is NO way im gonna stick my hand in there but that random fiherman told me to stab it in the head...yeh right....so I drag it back to the water and revive it til it kicked off to the deep blue. Hopefully Mr. Tiger wont remember me the next time I go surfing.
Anyway long story hope you enjoy
