queensland Quick goldy sesh sponsored by Damiki

Had work christmas luncheon (sp) down the goldy on the weekend so snuck out for a flick afterwards.. water still dirty and pretty rough country so upped to 6lb and tied on my fav 38mm DR crackjack; and when i say fav i mean its caught me 19 fish so far :side:

It's getting to a point where im scared to tie it on cos i dont wanna lose it! hahaha

Anyhoo about 10 casts in this little guy jumped on

Little later on picked up this guy

Then the inevitable short takes, grab the lure and run but can't hookup, follows but they wouldn't commit and then i called it a day. Fished for 2 hours but either way donut avoided and got to get outside for a walk around

Quick question - the bib on that dr is so scuffed up, not affecting how the lure swims but can i sand it down or how can u mod the bibs on hardbodies?

im definitely getting less fish than normal lately.. i manage one early on in the session but then the dry spell kicks in and i cant find another fish for ages..

beats the days with nothing for hours on end though >.>

definitely need to get out with you soon for some of that surface fishing rob, ur reports are awsome

[ryanyoung]

Nice going Khoi, I like the look of those lures!!! I have a couple of lures like that, where I am almost afraid to tie them on in case I lose them lol!!!

Cheers,

Ryan.

Nice shot mate. Its bottom jaw looks a bit weird how the teeth shoot out, it probably mainly eats oysters or other growth on the rocks.

[51MPL]

Yep.I've noticed some have awsome dental programs, ill link to a diff fish I caught so u see

Btw how did you go kft?

[lcpunk]

Some awesome fish there!

Wow, I really gotta figure out how to get this technique down flicking with surface poppers, only had about 7 or 8 sessions but yet to get a bite, so I'm eternally frustrated. However this motivates me to keep trying haha!

[51MPL]

keep at it mate, topwater is the most fun!

these fish were all caught on diving hbs though =]

check out the fangs on this guy

[werewolf]

Love the piccies. What sort of phone u using bloke?

[BrisBassMan]

May seem like a silly question but are Pontoon 21 and Damiki the same company. That crackerjack 38 I looked up and saw that it said Pontoon 21 lures.

Maybe I'm missing something ?? haha probably

[51MPL]

Yeah Damiki is the big company, rods lures etc etc .. you have specific lures like the p21 range - crackjacks =]

Phone i use is the Samsung Galaxy S - 5mp camera. Just got a diff camera app with better macro so cant wait to give it a crack

[Keen-as-fisho]

Btw how did you go kft?

Yeah I went pretty good considering the conditions were below average. My gaol for the event was to make top ten and with only two fish caught, 23.7cm FL and 25cm FL I came 8th and picked up a nice pair of Mako sunnies. Unfortunately the sunnies are useless to me as I wear prescription sunnies

There was only one full bag of five caught for the day and several 3 bag 2's and bags of only one fish entered and many donuts. I caught about 15 undersized bream, 20+ flathead ranging from 20 to 45cm and small trevally so not really a bad day.

I didn't bother with a report because no photos were taken apart from the fish entered.

Forgot to mention that both fish were caught on the Damiki 3 inch armour shad in the moibi colour.

This weekend 5th, dan25 and myself will be competeing in the Hobie ABT Tweed event.

nah mate, not a silly question, Pontoon 21 and Damiki are seperate companies that i both represent in Australia. Both companies have massive ranges that include rods, braid, flouro, accessories and lures. Pontoon 21 is a recent addition to the line up only appearing since late August this year.

I stand corrected, sorry rob *wave*

[Zim man]

all good mate;)
