Old Scaley got a reaction from jimee in Neap tide thinking
Same way I approach all other tides @Bretto77 Just get out when wind and weather allow and if you brain the fish it is a bonus.

70cm of run tides this weekend....time to hit the deepest water in the rivers I think.

Old Scaley reacted to Huxstang in fishing goals for 2024
Fingers crossed I am working on one of my goals tomorrow. Wind is supposedly easing so launching at Cleveland and have a look at Peel area for first time. The artificial and reefs around the western side and lazaret. But if its not too windy/choppy will look at Harry’s
However I am 2 down on my goals….got my first jew on a vibe last month and reckon I am about 50% there on using Livescope. Bought a new zero degree mount so should be a lot more accurate with casting at what we see now.

It is football season, afterall. You could punt that 57 a long way. haha
Well done for a pre-work session.

I loaded the ute last night and was up at 5:30 this morning for a pre work fish.
I was fishing by 6am in the dark and got a little 45cm yellow belly on my 2nd flick, things went a bit quiet after that so a quick move to another spot upstream and I was into a solid 60cm yellow belly on the little 3kg rod with a 1000 side reel and light 6lb braid, pulled in another little 40cm yellow belly and then Strait away hooked into a super fat 57cm yellow belly, at 2st I thought id snagged a rock as the lure just stoped and sat there, i gave it a shake to try get it off when the "rock" started to swim away. It put a a brilliant fight with lots of runs and it definitely didn't want any part of the net. But steady pressure and keeping calm did the trick.
I also foul hooked a fat cap that gave me a hell of a run around.
Another bloke fishing down from me lost to and I noticed he lost them shortly after tightening the drag trying to net them, I definitely think it's better to let them run and take your time netting them, especially on the light gear it's been paying me big dividends. I'm definitely going to try that tactic next trip chasing arapaima, I'm sick of loosing the really big ones.

Old Scaley got a reaction from Rebel in Curl Curl Rocks Nth. Beaches Tuesday.
Good morning’s fishing followed by what I assume was a satisfying breakfast. Sounds like the only one who missed out was the 🐕.

Hi All,
Arrived around Sunrise. About 2 hours after low tide. Top day. God's country.
First up a Kingie. He wasn't happy 70cm. Went quite, so I moved.
Next up a nice snapper 48cm. Then another Kingie 68cm.
Caught 2 bonito ( realeased ) Another snapper 50cm.
That was enough.
Dawia over there rod. Fin-Nor LT100 reel with 20lb mono & 30lb leader. Circle hooks. Bait fresh squid.
Newport Arms for breakfast.
Sorry no pictures.
Cheers.

I'm suspecting Team North will be covering the Emperor category quite well.

Old Scaley reacted to Corry in fishing goals for 2024
Metery, my goal is to get my 1st meter Barra.
It's been elusive for so many years, definitely not from lack of trying, it's not like we're not catching them, just struggling to break that meter mark.

You have to be happy with that bag in those conditions @Bretto77 and @Kat

Yes Steve it's the protein for quite a few meals for us. You get the learning experience that you can't get if you buy that protein from a shop also. Was a good day overall.
