Slow Start...Cracker Finish
Gday guys,
Arrived to Vines creek this arvo to water the same colour as milo. Very slow start with Joel and I releasing a box of nitro jigheads and a bag of gulp into the system within the first 2 hours. Joel had caught his PB stick and I'de only caught a few small cod before we decided to grab a feed at the near-by corner store. With our bellies full and our rigs retied, we set off re-enthused and ready to get into the low tide bream bite. We started wading around our usual spot for only 2 small flathead and a just legal bream when we discovered that the usual rock/gravel bottom had been washed away and was now under a few feet of sand. What a bugger - our prime bream spot has just been stuffed up and now what do we do? We ended up down at a realy deep whole thats known for its better class of bream. My second cast with a 3 inch minnow resulted in a subtle tap on the drop so i quickly struck and was loosing line fast! Woooo horse bream I yelled as Joel came running but when this thing thing just kept running and head shaking, my thoughts changed to a nice little trevally. All that went out the window when 5 minutes later i beached a massive scat. It went 48cm and was like a bloody serving tray! Just before we left I lost 2 tarpon in 2 casts due to their acrobatics.
Anyways,
Cheers aye,
Isaac
