Well after not getting out last round and scoring a donut I thought I'd get in early and take the family out chasing Jewies today. Not a very successful trip but thanks to my step daughter I have scraped on to the board with this 48cm Jewie. Caught at the mouth of the Adelaide on pillie & squid combo.

58cm bazz from the Lizzie, pumpkin seed swimming mullet doing the job again. 3 fish in 6 casts, not a bad effort... 8) Probably my only shot at this round due to the new motor going on sometime in the next few weeks...

Went out in the harbour with a mate on saturday and got a few on soft plastics.
This was the biggest and thought it was going to go close to 70 the way it took line.
A really fat fish 8) .

Woke up to a beaut morning so decided to do a solo run to west arm. Saw a lot of fish but struggled to find a lure that would interest them. Went through a pile of hard bodies and plastics but the one that proved best was a well worn Little Lucifer. Ended up getting five with the best being a 66. The others went 54, 48 and two in the thirties. I took the mandatory photos at the time of capture but forgot to include the paper until I was on my way home so that's why the second photo of the fish on the brag mat albeit a few hours later.

The tough fishing continues at the Daly. Have fished the Crossing, Bamboo, Elizabeth and went down to greet the tidal bore at Hareys yesterday at 7:30am - great to see!
Played Barra lotto up the centre from Elizabeth to Charlie's; stopping for a few passes at the main rock bar. 1 fish at 51cm for our efforts.......!! There was at least 1 metery (103) caught there between about 8 boats. But very very slow fishing. There is a huge amount of debris in the river, never seen so much, interestingly there' was 3 dead crocs floating down with it.
Found a few more fish higher up but definitely nothing to write home about. This was my best landed; 59cm. Looking for an upgrade before heading back to Darwin on Sunday!

Plan B! 8)

Well the father in law did it again with a 110cm, but he was pipped at the post by the Mrs with a 113cm. Me? Well I'm just the guide these days. :roll: :bonk:

Somewhere near a big F.O. Rock...... :naughty: :catch:

PS: Not sure why the pics are sideways?

Fished SWA today, 114cm on the pillie/squid combo, plenty of bream and snapper around as well, got back to the ramp and two police boats were waiting and checked all my safety gear. Passed the rangers on GP road heading out that way towing that black punt.

Great fish Richie, easily the fatest 97 I've seen. I just happened to be heading for home and passed by as he hooked up, catching the 'shoulder hyper-extension' and the big girl clear the water by 4 feet! Not sure what was more impressive; solo deployment of the Minn Kota with a rampaging fish and run out tide or fitting that slob into a net I'm more accoustomed to sliding bream and flatties into. Thx for the show RB, pretty to watch!
:clap:

I'll PM you a couple of photos.

Slight upgrade for me from the same day a RB.
Landed 16 fish, which was a real turnaround from the week, where I found it very slow. This was the best 72cm; extracted from a log jam after wrapping me around 2 stumps. Good fun on my bass gear!

Going to have one more crack at a big fish once the Classic concludes.......Barra lotto anyone... :banghead:
