  1. Yes Bob, we actually got 2 bycatch slimies while reeling back our bottom bashing paternoster rigs. As Dunc mentioned it was hard work to get anything. But as they say ‘a bad of fishing is better than a good day in the office’. Thanks @dlvbw Dunc, looking forward for our next session mate. cheers md
  2. Absolutely amazing report. Great catch n good pics. Loved every bit of it.
  3. Thanks Dunc for giving me the opportunity and taking me out. We have been planning to go out for jigging for a long time and I never thought it would be so much fun as well as so much of hard work. My whole body was sore but definitely will do it again soon.
  4. Thanks for taking me out in your boat @dlvbw What an amazing fishing session we had just before the cold weather. I love weekday fishing as getting out and back in took almost no extra time.
  5. One of my favorite fish to catch and eat. well done mate.
  6. Well done mate, nice report.
  7. Well done Bob. I never knew bass fishing can be so much fun until I met you. Learned heaps from you and hope join few more sessions with you next season.
  8. Well done Dunc, Clearly you had an awesome session. Hope to get my keeper soon.
  9. Great report Bob. Looks like it’s high time to take few days off from work to go fishing. Cheers MD
  10. @Madkanu one of the best report I have read today where pics weren’t the focus. I guess your fishing skills are as good as your writing mate , at least they are going to be soon with the great Sefu @DerekD @DerekDhats off to you. I wish and hope to have few more sessions with you soon.
  11. Wow! What an impressive haul. Well done mate.
  12. Well written @dlvbw ; it wasn’t what we expected but overall it was a fun filled day. Hopefully next one will be better.
  13. Great photos mate, what a Croc! that Jew must have been a great fight. Keep posting.
  14. 15 bass in 2 hours in George’s is definitely a great session and give us hope for better fishing.
  15. 18/01/23 G’day Raiders Easter 2021 holiday time I took my 3 yrs old Son for beach fishing for the first time and he caught few Whiting. He got natural instinct to reel a fish nice and slow while keeping that tension on; or should I say he couldn’t reel any faster because he was a tiny little man. Now he thinks he is a big boy (5yrs old) ; so took him to one of the local wharf last night. Gave him choice of few lures that I know will work in these areas ( tested and proven before) and asked him to choose one. He chose a “Halco Laser Pro 45 trout” Yellow colour lure because he is a Bumblebee fan. I showed him how to cast, and reel back in to create different moments of the lure. Different retrieve creates different movements without giving you a sore arm (learned from the great sifu @DerekD Passing your knowledge to the young fella as I’m sure you’ll be proud to hear his laughter). Rest of the arvo he just screamed with excitement and laughed with joy. We got 14/15 tailors in an hour, varied from 20cm all the way to 35cm and it was a catch and release session only, so all of them went back to live another day. He got around 10 fishes and kept me busy with measure and release. I let him enjoy his day, no interruption for photos but when I saw him a bit tired I thought to record his last catch. Please keep him in your prayer so that he become a respectable human being as well as a great angler.
  16. Ohh wow! Good to see they are active in down stream as well. As always your backyard your game , well played Bob.
  17. Nice pics, another great day out in your backyard Bob.
  18. One of the best fishing day of my life. I met two legends @Pickles & @GordoRetiredand spend some quality fishing time with them. Thanks for the opportunity Bob and hope to see you again soon. As for the taste, I’ll rate them 4 out of 5; if anyone interested to my recipe; here’s how I cooked the bass: Marinated those white flesh beautiful fillets with salt, pepper, freshly chopped garlic and rosemary. Then Pan fried in 2 tablespoons of butter for 2/3 minutes each side, keeping your eyes on chopped garlic ( do not let them burn too much). Served the fish with roasted veggies and garlic bread. My 5yrs old son and wife both loved the dinner.
  19. What a great report bob @Pickles ; I’m still waiting for my lures to arrive.
