Kayak Fishing Down Under

Good on ya for letting the big girl go Stonecold. She'll definately reward you by restocking your favourite systems in the future!!

Im thinking they should all be let go at that size Brad...mine do anyway...Is it possible to copy and past the report into the estuary section from your end or do i need to do that?

Geez some people are hard to satisfy, two almighty lizards and winning a comp just wasn't enough, you had to go and catch a nice Jew just to really show us up

Awesome work mate

promise mate.... it was an accident

Firstly,congrats Brad on organising agreat fun comp.

well done Stonecold on your beauties and a great read,you had me in fits of with your report,
I don't think it would be out of place in "'comedy capers"

well it was a top morning on the water for me and a few of the sydney guy's Sunday.
started of throwing some plastics around some shallows whilst making my way to the main
channel where I know some decent flatties hold up regularly,no joy to be had on the flats.
started a troll along the channel with the runout approx 40 mins in bang...hookup,a short tussle
and a 36 model is onboard,bewdy on the board.this is where the fun begins.

have you ever tried holding a measure rule,a crazy flathead doing a halfpike,double sumersault
and a full twist,whilst juggling a camera for a pic.
you guessed it hte cannon was millimetres from in the drink,shit that was close i thinks to myself.
hence the camera went into safe storage for the rest of the day.
did manage another lizard some time later @ 36-38 cm he just did a backflip over the side while trying
to get an accurate measure.that was me for the flatties for the day

did manage a p.b whitng 39-cm,on half a gulp sandworm.

heres a pic i took of nitefr8's kingy cheers rob

Launched in the lower Georges around 6:30am to find Mac05, nitefr8, and Nigel fishing the area. The boys had already picked up a few flat chaps and were using some tried and true lures:) I had a shocker with a total of 11 mini-me flatties, with the best a pigeon pair of 38cm fingerlings, a 60cm ike and a porcupine fish to my credit. Congrats to nitefr8 (Mark) who scored the best flatty in the area and a a double hook up on kingies! Top croc there Stonecold and talk about in the zone with the top 2 anglers scoring memorable bi-catches. Great comp to run and well done to Leper for getting it up and running. I have to get out there to spot and make up for my dismal effort...either that or change my name!

hi all
First well done to stoneclod on 2 great fish and to leper for organising the whole event .
We all met at the Kograh bay ramp at 0515 we being saltydude , mac05 pommey nigel ,and myself . The plan was pretty simple give the Kograh Bay flats a work out then drift down with the last of the tide to Captain Cook bridge and give the flats near the sailing club a workout , saltydude was working the deeper water with some blades , but i was trolling a manns strech 5+in a shocking pink on 1 rod and a strikepro deep diver on the 2nd rod the 67 cm model took the pink manns and played up a fair bit in the shallow water mac05 (rob ) came over and scooped her up in his net as she kept sliding out of my silicone , (i think they need to be a bit deeper), i trolled up and down a few times and picked up 6 in all and a nice king that really played up on the light gear , now the fun bit attaching the pics , ive had 3 goes at writing this and every time i go to attach the words go away .
IT was a great morning on the water with the boys and something i look forward to doing again.
cheers
Mark

Posting a few pics for Ol Salty

A bemused look by me after losing a flattie overboard due to my excellent flathead handling skills (next time i'm ditching the towel and will risk a spike or two)
Jeffs nice 60+ model, if only the wind had stayed down he might have had a chance to land another.
