what an introduction!

hey there peoples,
what a weekend. Log onto the site on Fri, pay a visit to the store, get some good advice and I'm off. It just so happens that after chasing flathead all these years I was missing all the Bream, so I decided to target them on that lovely wet Sunday and picked up 3 sized fish. I thought i was doing well until I bumped into Evan who asked me if I had a camera to take a snap of his HORSE of a fish. Conservatively I'd give it 1.8kg, a few beers later, around 2flat. Nice one. Then Monday bumped into a few more of you out in the sun shine. Took two bream that could have doubled as lures but had a good day all the same.
hope to see more of you out there.

Cheers.
Sam

welcome to the site sam

good to hear you got a few- it took me ages to get my first fish on plastics

bummer that we couldnt snap that horse but i guess that it was better to watch it swim off then float off!!! the bit of line that i measured it with went 51cm!!!

we'll have to catch up for a fish sometime

cheers

Ev

, maybe something bigger!!!!!

Cheers mate.

G'day Sam - I'm the guy that was with Ev that actually caught the fish - I just let him call it his cause he gets a bit funny about not catching anything you see.

Hahah. Anyway welcome to the site; probably see you around some time.

cheers

sam · #5 04-06-2003, 07:56 AM

well Chris we'll just have to keep letting Ev clame the catch

, we know the truth. Or we could go one better.....possibly two!!!!
Oh, well. I just lost a final in soccer and now have the erge to clense myself with a few casts. A decent fish is the best cureall.
See Ya

that hardly even warrants a reply

nice fish chris well done

sam · #7 04-06-2003, 08:20 AM

now I'm just confused, HeHe. I still have the camera ready, maybe a few action shots would settle this.

Evan · #8 04-06-2003, 12:18 PM

haha dont worry chris is just being his usual stupid self, hes never caught a fish anywhere near that size

except a dead one

ask him about it one day

im probably going to be wandering around that area on fri arvo- might see you walking around???

sam · #9 05-06-2003, 09:23 AM

I think I may just give the area a working over as well. I'll be around somewhere. give us a call on 0419476443 if you are in need of a photographer

hahaha look what you have started chris

Rhyss it was me that got the fish, i pulled it out from under the boats and around the pilons etc

the only way chris caught it would be if you could claim his thumb in the mouth grab from the water as a capture- not a bad effort getting a 50cm bream with your bare hands- pitty it had my jig in its mouth

it was caught a little further towards the city than freshy bay

chris_lemess · #11 05-06-2003, 10:06 AM

Hahah no I didn't catch a fish anywhere near 50cm! My biggest in the last week or so was a mere 44cm in comparison!
