The way you have to look at is that you successfully got a hit on the lure. That's more than half the battle.

I think you're doing pretty well at the moment - your time will come for getting a great catch. I have a few dropped fish that bug me .... it's all part of the game I guess :)

Relax probably not a Jewie, most likely a pinky or trevally or even a dirty couta.

A Jew will strip line off you but doesn't dart around and twist and turn, its more like a steam train and will keep lots of energy in reserve so will have a slower beat kick, until he sees your mug and then its on like donkey kong.
