At last,the winter is slowly starting to fade away,its getting light earlier and its not as cillie outside any more,surely its not summer yet but boy oh boy,spring cant be here soon enough!
On saturday afternoon i went for a quik session to one of the local dams to get "fit" for when the season arrives,i bought a 12cm jerk bait made by Storm,i started by useing plasticks but without any results and changed to the jerk as i moved back into the channel out of the deeper,open water,it was'nt to long before i got a smallish one of about 800gm-1kg next to a weed bank i moved up to a jetty to see if i can get something there,placed the lure right next to the jetty,it got hung up on a stump as the line was blown ower to the righthand side but with a light pull it got unstuck and the lure fell into the water,as it landed a 2,2kg jumped clear out of the water with my lure stuck tightly in the side of its mouth......after a short fight the photies was taken and he/she was released!2 fish in a 80mins isnt bad...........
