Chased off the beach

Post by Matt Flynn »

Family was chased off the beach this morning. Noisy local didn't want to share the fish with us.

So we went to the jetty and my daughter caught a cracker squid, which she made me release ... tears were near flowing from both of us, but for different reasons :chef1:

Possibly the only catch-and-release squid in the history of fishing?

Was a bit cold, snow on the mountains. Nice day tho, sure beats the keyboard.

30.06 running 220 grain hollow points sorts the seal problem out quick smart...

:)

plenty of my trolled baits for granders off batemans bay have been demolished by these pr..ks.... cute as, but they're worse than powertails up north.
Tight lines 'n' keep the shiny side up people.

Down the southern end, about as far as the road goes. Yep, it's been a cold year, clearish skies make it colder.

Those are some great pics, Matt! I can relate to your experience with the seals on the South Coast of NSW. They can be real troublemakers! I've lost a few good fish to them as well. It’s always a bit frustrating when they show up, but it's all part of the adventure, I guess.
