Favourite species to chase?

Post by AllNamesUnavailable » Thu Sep 01, 2016 9:09 pm

For me personally, i LOVE to chase bream and yellas on lures and light gear but i was just wondering what ya'll most prefer to catch in your spare time.
Cheers, Dean.

Bass for the adventure and fight. Kingfish for the fight and dinner

Jews on yaks is a pretty enjoyable experience. But then again so is bass and EP.

Surface bite in snags of 50cm plus bass or EP would probably be the ultimate, I got a 48 bass last year but it was fairly open water. If Id caught cod on lure that would probably be high up there too.

favourite species to catch is and probably always will be cod. But I'll fish for whatever wherever I can in my spare time (mainly carp Somewhere close by)
If I'm not fishing, I'd rather be fishing!

Anything really, but Murray Cod would have to be favourite closely followed by Yellowbelly, cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them
