Ok, so Ive been reading adtracs snapper reports and getting slightly jelly so thought I'd head out to my 'secret metro beach' for a cpl hrs seeing as the tide and wind was looking good. After hooking and releasing a few stamp size pinkies and bit bigger I hooked a big flat chap who gave me a good work out on my nibble tip rod and 8lb fc. I had him on for over 10mins and thought might be able to beach him but I think he was just toying with me!
Not long after, my reel starts screaming like a kitten at the back of a chinese takeaway!! Rod gets dislodged from holder and starts getting dragged to the waterline. Pick it up and I can feel that this is a keeper. Pinky was taken on pilchard/prawn cocktail!! No 'big red' by any means but was great fun for a cpl hrs after lunch. Glad to see my 'secret beach spot' is still producing. Will hit it up 2moro with a mate(today was supposed to be recon for 2moro :D ).

Re: 'secret metro beach' pinky
Nice one shazz! Can imagine there being lots of micro ones around.....
Re: 'secret metro beach' pinky
Cheers!! There were a few but not as many as usual. Probably, because I was sharing my fishing space with a cormorant who kept insisting on chasing all the mullet that were feasting on my berley lolpoodoo wrote:Nice one shazz! Can imagine there being lots of micro ones around.....
