Jack fishos?

[Tropicaltrout]

Interesting thread Dids.... even our honey hole is quiet and this next week theres going to be more rain and we have not had a day of 30 plus degrees yet and we are in December. now to look at last yeah.... I caught Jacks and Barra by the plenty as of September and was fishing in 30 plus in August, and again in September... The northerlies where blowing, and water temp was high but stable.... This yeah temprature is all over the joint, day temp are slowly getting there but not yet made it, winds well SE most of the time and the rains well they are constant... Salinity is down, bait well I have to say is Thick! a few casts in the sound found hundreds of herring, maroochy mullet are thick, and elsewhere The bait is easy to get. Only thing is the bait is lower in the system.......

The fish will fire if we get a break in this current weather system, and the rains cease for a while... who knows the reason for the winter jacks this year is that they senced that the weather was failing and kept chewing when otherwise they would relax a little???

Those 3b walkers are claiming a lot of fish at the moment Pete.. Have you tried the pop dog? I'm convinced that my pop dog is the best lure I've ever purchased or used.

Yeah mate got plenty of Pop dogs also.....I cant get away from the scum dogs at the moment....They are very entertaining to use as and as you said they are working very well on a wide range of species.

Thats the new Patriarch reel pictured there too mate.....they are a very nice bit of gear too.
I know you will be interested.

You boys don't give me much faith on catching one if you gurus are having trouble.

Hey Pete, how do u rate the Patriarch? Do u have any knowledge of the other sizes? Trying to work out which one would equate to a 3/4000 size reel.

Hi Pete,

Mate I have just got two patriarchs.

The one you want is model number 9540.
It is the 3/4000 size reel and perfect for Barra/snapper plastics.

They are very nice reels and I have really enjoyed using them.
Cosmetically they look pretty sexy with a good design,they are very smooth and extremely light (some of the lightest reels on the market actually).
The drags are more than ok but for Barra you could throw in some carbontex and it would be one top reel.

Cheers,
Pete

Pete....Thats the ones.

Chriso......Camera is a Canon s90 and I use the program it comes with.
Only editing I commonly do is resizing and cropping mainly.
To be really honest some of these cameras around are pretty dam good and if you learn the functions you can take some good shots pretty easily.
I have taken the time to shoot in RAW mode but it can be a little more time consuming.
