SPIN A HOLIC

Afternoon guys.
Thanks for enjoying the read.
Yip i must say it was the perfect way to start off the year. At 10 to twelve new years eve i decided to have the last cast for the year. Took a dead mullet and threw it out in the surf. Not having and sinkers i used a 3oz spoon as a sinker. The bait wasnt even in for 5 min and i got flatened. Dont know what it was as it took about 60m of line and came off.
New years day the kingies were up early and we each got a fish on our first cast. I also said now this is how to start 2012.

What was the water temperature...? and what do you think was the reason that the Jacks, cuberra's and threadfins was so active during that time...?

Quanza River what a place

Hi SMBF!!The sea was quite cold,recon all the fish came into the river to warm up.So you had the whole Kwanza basins fish in a small area,good and bad at the same time,good for us,but bad for the fish.The locals also figured it out after a while and started to put nets,troll etc for them.Were having a very weird season here,still no rain????
