Went out this morning from the slip here in Melkbos and tried for snoek trawling my new rapala X-rap. nothing. Dropped anchor in 25 m water and sent down a sardine. Later I felt a dead weight and thought I was stuck on the bottom. After a hard pull it started to move, slowly and I got a nasty gut-cut on my index finger and pinkie. That was about the time I realised I should glove up. It went much better with the one glove and I managed to get the thing up. When it got close to the kayak, I nearly cr@ped myself when I saw it was a shark. Not that big compared to some of the monsters some of the other Sealiners have caught, but with an open mouth about 25 to 30 cm wide I had a skrik and just cut the line.
Went on and caught 2 snoek, lekker groot Melkbos snoeke. En ek is in my noppies. My arms is net vrek moeg, maar ek is baie tevrede met 'n lekker oggend se werk.
