    Talking Snapper at Harry's

    I have been waiting for something worthwhile before putting up my first post. I think this is it.
    Today is my first day of retirement! This is my first fish caught in retirement! 88cm 6.5kg Snap caught on prawn while drifting at Harry's. It can't get much better than this. Finished of with 2 smaller legal snap and a Mulloway. Hope I haven't peaked too soon!
    Callop was there to offer entheusiastic support but didnt achieve much else for the day. He does however get points for putting me on the fish.
    Cheers.

    Well done Pete - that is a cracking snapper! What lure/bait did the damage?

    Retired hey? And you didn't come to see the best retirement adviser in Capalaba - I'm disappointed!

    Cheers

    All the fish were caught on prawn on 5/8 jighead with extra lead added. Neither lure or plastic would attract fish today.

    Must have been late in the day Pete if you were fishing with the Count.

    To the shed!
