Travelling Lure - Episode 1

Finally got a little weather window to give the travelling lure a swim.

Headed to the reliable queenie spot but they weren't really on the chew, apart from two 60cm rats. Hooked a nice 8-9kg brassy trevally on it but the hooks pulled just as we put the landing net in the water, got some nice tooth marks only!

Eventually got a little golden which was worthy of a pic. Strange thing was I got it by letting the richter sink to the bottom in 10m and working it like I usually fish my banana jigs.

PM me your address Adam and I'll post it over (unless Brad/Huggy want it and will send it you when they are done).

send it to Brad - I'm heading up there Thursday so hopefully he and I can knock one off each and I'll send it on after that.

 

And agree with the sentiments - excellent start!

I'm going to add in one of my small homemade banana leadheads to ride shotgun with the richter. I'll make it a small one so the southern crew can use it for flatties, skippy etc.

Post it down to Adam when you and Huggy B are done thrashing it.

The Business

Well they got it, but I don't think the boys were able to do 'the business' with it.
