Was pretty much an uneventful night, put everything and anything out there and not even a sniff! Even went up to mordiallac and didn't have any luck there either, but fishing is fishing so it's all in the game. |

Started slow, but then had a massive hit and nearly lost my rod. My mate caught the rod after it lifted off the ground. I took the rod off him and started to reel the line in. The fish took 1 massive run, and then it went straight under the pier. I brought the fish out from under the pier and saw it was a massive snapper around the 5kg mark. Then it went of again under the pier and snapped my line. I went crazy, but that's fishing. |
