Thanks Brian, yer we got lucky with only a brief shower or two and a slight southerly so the southern bay was relatively flat
We caught 5 all up, kept some smaller ones for a feed but released the one in the pic.
Yakka's are in abundance atm, but thankfully the sharks were not today

Thanks Greg,
If it was the same fish it's shite outta luck this time because we kept this one as it was a bay pb for the person i took out with me who is terminally ill. We used to fish together a long time ago and it was great to see the smile on his face

What are the odds of that?

Exciting stuff, Darren. It might be hard to go back to bait.
@Old Scaley not likely Steve..
Will never miss fishing with bait, so i can put the rod in the holder, sit back, take in the surroundings and enjoy a JD and a smoke

Got a call from a long time mate who i haven't seen for awhile, who only fishes with fly rod gear and catches all sorts on fly in the bay including snapper, jacks, jew, threadies and even a metre long barra!. Anyway the plan was to chase jewies on fly the other night in the southern bay. After being introduced to using fly gear with Uncle Tony catching Rainbow Trout awhile ago, i was keen to both catch up with him and also to maybe improve my fly casting abilities. To be honest i would have just been happy to be a passenger in his boat to watch and witness his skills.
But being the mate he is, when we got to spot x, he proceeded to position his boat nicely with the minny and then handed me one of his fly rods and gave me instructions on when and where to cast the fly. He's the sort of fella who gets just as much of a thrill and satisfaction letting the deckie catch while he enjoys watching their excitement.
It wasn't long before we could hear and see the jew busting the bait near and on the surface under the moonlight.
It really is exciting to sight cast a fly to where the action is, slowly retrieve it and then watch a jew inhale the fly on the surface! The visual anticipation is addictive for sure.
Once hooked i was advised to give them nothing, no line at all if possible, otherwise they would swim straight back into the structure and it would be game over. Well that would be easier said than done on a 25kg model - that i'd like to see lol. Definately different for me from being used to bait fishing and letting the drag scream.
Not monsters but all up we caught three jew and two big tailor, all released and i had a ball !.
