I know the feeling.
the kids seem to get us all. Its always the way. I can spend $100's on rod and reels, and without a doubt my nephey will catch more fish than I ever will. But thats the best part.....sometimes.
Ive spent the last 2 Fridays down the south coast, with a little more luck. Last weekend we threw the boat in at Manyana beach, and at the end of the day, had 7 awesome flatties around 45cm. Dinner was awesone, and the bundy was flowing.
Yesterday we were off Kiama, and although slow and hard work, we got a mixed bag of flathead, snapper and some jackets on steroids. After talking to a friend in Manyana, he said the leatheries had been a pest for the last 4 months, but they had moved on. Lets hope this happens in Sydney.
