First Salmon

First Salmon

Only a runt of a salmon but its my first and on a surface lure non the less. Caught at denmark no massive schools only a couple of 2mx2m schools cruising through but not commiting to hitting the lures and heaps well out of casting distance. Swam off fine even with the battle scars.

 When you are pelting

Fri, 2012-04-13 17:17

 When you are pelting relatively heavy lures or metals on braid it pays to protect fingers.

 

Correct me if I am wrong Danno

Maybe you should focus less

Mon, 2012-04-23 10:36

Maybe you should focus less on trolling and more on your fishing techniques, at least that way when you land a fish we could criticise every single post you create be it the fish, your gear or your attire.

Im all for a bit of banter and fun between friends, however,  majority of posts are being ruined by this rubbish with a high percentage of it coming from you, I'd probably go out on a limb and say Danno and yourself are not friends so why the need to attack him?

Im glad you can laugh at yourself because we all are.

Danno - Props on the salmon, one more than i have caught in the last 2 years.

Dont worry about the glove, anyone who has been on a real fishing trip for a few days can sympathise with you and the benefits of a glove to cover those little nicks and braid cuts.

 Nice salmon, great way to open the account. all the ones I got this trip I found I had lots more hits from sub surface lures, very few where actually rising to take a popper. Soft plastics where the big winner for sure. And nice rod those pirates are a dream to throw lures with.

 Liams just shit stirring and everyone always gets so worked up.. Just leave alone under his bridge :P

 Should have made the trip to albany hey danno it was insane action when I was there, I scored most on a yo zuri popper which was awesome to see them smash it on the top and quite often throw it meters away before going at it again.

Yer we were going to make the trip down there for a day but didn't. Had a couple of decent salmon chase my stick bait to the rocks only to swim off it. That was the only school within casting distance and it was moving fast. Can't wait for them to hit dunn's if they come this far up.

When were you there?
