queensland the drought is over :)

Today went for a bbq with a few mates, house backed onto the newport canals so took my fishing gear...gave a half hearted attempt at flickin a few lures with nothin biting...the case that it had been for a few weeks for me. Lunch was read so i thought what the hell ill just leave some bait to soak and check the rod everynow and then

So I cast across the canal just under the hull of a boat and went and had a feed while constantly checkin the rod, probably almost an hr later walked down to the pontoon and was wondering why my line was under the pontoon i was on and not on the other side of the canal...thought the tide musta moved it. wound in a bit and woah! saw the beautiful colour of a large bream at my feet and got him up, PB bream of 32cm woohoo!

So with a fish landed re rigged because the hook was in his stomach and cast out again, nothing biting so i reeled in to cast elsewhere and got a bite, waited then felt some weight and strike, bout 2 winds later saw a beautiful flatty, estimated 40-50 then lost him, got bitten off on my 6pb line first time ever aswell! so cut, ah well was time to go home so finally my fish drought is over!! and what perfect timing, few weeks at straddy from wednesday

both fish were caught on chicken

As much As i complan about not cathcing bream on lure you have to say catching them on bait is great fun.
