Weve been fishing a lot of handy venues round the city and it was time to go further a field, alas the weather was a mild NW for days, basically no surf, coming into a neap - no swell etc. etc.
I had the lads well prepped that this was about looking at a new venue and giving yourself the best chance when the conditions were favourable - we will catch nothing or maybe an undersize coalie or two
was hardly looking at my rod, showing them bait presentation, getting lugs on the hook properly etc.
went back to my rod and noticed a twitch and then felt a bit of weight, to my delight a schoolie comes in right on the bottom of the ebb in virtually no surf, to add to the maddness i was using a refrozen sandeel (precisely what i told the lads not to do!) I had made clear you needed fresh lug or crab for this job - i have never caught one on a sandeel before
thats fishing for yea
