queensland River runs red. 13/06

[sehrguht]

Hit the river up after work today and got a couple snapper and a couple bustoffs before Shane rocked up and we set about filling our bag limit.

Took a bit of time but persistance paid off with the plastics and we got 8 healthy river snapper mostly 36-39 with one 42. not huge but all good for the grill.

Caught a strange friend too, wouldnt expect to see this in the river.

about 6cm across the body plus spines.

Sounded around a decent drop in around 8metres of water. About to give up on the show and i come up solid against a small jew

We went and flick some lights and Shane got a tailor around 40cm.

Then I got a wicked hit on the paddle tail plastic and came up solid on 10lb to an 80cm jew, a couple solid runs and then he circles and was subdued. my best jew on a lure thus far.

Ended up with a good feed and im rather shattered now. not looking forward to getting up in a bit over 5 hours.

Thanks to Shane for coming along and netting the jew as i dont know that i would have got that one in on my own.

Cheers, Jeremy.

Normally find sea urchins in clean coastal water. Considering that's from the river I'm guessing it is the stained top of a pineapple

Good night on the plastics. Enjoy your alarm

Congrats on the jew mate you've done well with that lot

[Shane69]

Cheers for the deckie spot bro

Mad sess yet again. I love the river atm bad weather made us put some time in the river and its producing the goods mid week.

Wait till i get the maCarthys, the body roll on them is nuts hopping them off the bottom I reckon itl be a killer for bigger snapper. Itl be hard getting them up on 10 lb leader.

Tee up for sess soon. Hopefully swell drops a bit more for Saturday and time to hit the dollies again.
