Nice going Frank,
fished hard for them over the last few years without getting any consistant success until last year.They are beautiful fish and once you catch one you really appreciate how pretty they are.
Well done,from what i've been told they are showing throughout the year[did'nt believe it] until now since i see you'v caught 2 already this year.Now i'm off to buy some ammo baits :lol: Fair play to you i must confess i'm a tad jealous,are you sure you've only taking up this fishing lark recently,a quick learner springs to mind :D ,keep it up that species count is getting bigger and we are still in jan,any chance of a few lessons :?:
Tight lines

They are nice fish alright - I was delighted to get two of them in quick succession.

12th June 2007 was the first time I held a rod in my hand. Most of what I have learnt about fishing has been from the SAI website - it is a great source of information.
If I could only improve my casting now :roll: :roll:
