1st Theadie at last!

[Benny]

G'day all, fortunately this Xmas break unlike others, I've managed to get out a few times fishing. The catching bit has been a bit slow but yesterday had a few odds and sods come over the side. I've also been playing with my gopro I got a few weeks ago on the last couple of trips, but until yesterday didn't have any actual fish to film. So, I had been fishing away, with only a small grunted and a decent bream, did the "one last cast" and hooked up along a steep bank! The fish started pulling pretty strongly and I was thinking a good sized flattie, but after a bit of back and forth, finally got a glimpse of a nice threadie! I was getting pretty nervous at this stage as I've been wanting one of these for a while and I was only running a 12lb leader and 6lb line Luckily, it was perfectly hooked in the corner of the mouth! Got it to the boat, it just went in the net and into the boat! I was stoked! And all caught on the gopro too, so after a fair bit of stuffing around, got it edited, uploaded and hopefully the link is right here. 1st attempt at all this, so apologies if it's a bit rough
