Kreel: Generally no in our experience. Though for different reasons that what you'd expect. Usually the way a Jack gets off is that it busts you off or straightens the treble, so you're gonna have to stuff around for a bit re-rigging so you sort of miss the opportunity for another shot. However, if you get a hit and it misses it, then yep, they'll hit it again the next cast.
Kev, it's just patience. Just keep fighting the fish until you can land it. Never try to land it when you first see it surface; it takes many goes.
This is all assuming the fish doesn't bust you off within the first 5 seconds, which frequently happens with Cod and Jacks
Lee: Really:blink:?
Our dog just stays around us. Because she's so dark, she's gotten locked outside a couple of times(outside our gate) and she just waits at the front door, waiting for us to let her in:)

You know it. She gets really goofy when ever we pull up on a sandbank at places like Jumpinpin. She can sprint for ages.
Pity she's stuck near the city so there aren't too many wide open places for her to run around in:(
In action on the boat:silly: she loves to come out with us, no matter where we go:) [img size=374]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/sooty_boat_dog_AFO.jpg
Dunno how these'll turn out, but here's our 3.5 year old Kelpie x Cattle Dog x Border Collie x any other working dog:silly: Picked her up from the RSPCA when she was 6 months old. Bit of a goofball, but a member of the family:)
She's an cool dogB)

Yeap. And some have been caught in the Logan (as a few people said above) and one was caught at Jumpinpin
I guess everyone said that Threadfin would never be caught in the river, and now look how many there are. Bring on Global Warming if it means that the northern species are coming down:woohoo:
This isn't just a tall tale or anything. It happened!! The fisheries inspector saw the fish.
Like I said above, it probably isn't a wild migrant Barra, but it was there.
