Yesterdays Dhu

 Got out for a fish yesterday. Perfect day out there, bit of swell but next to no wind. Had some really good shows on the sounder but the fishing was tough. Moved around in the 40's for a couple of undersize Baldies and lots of 30cm Pinkies and a couple of Sargent Bakers. I decided to go a drift bait rig as the wind had really died off by lunch, and put on a nice slab of Sarg. Having a good run with the Sarg baits of late. Got this fella went 94cm and just shy of 14 kgs.

On the last drift of the day the sounder lit up from the bottom to around 25m, new they had to be Sambos. Brother in law hooked up but dropped a good one that was taking a bit of line on heavy drag. I picked up this heavy one on my Demon Blood and Stradic 6000 with a big white soft plastic. It gave me a good run around. Got it in for a quick pic and released well.

 Yeah that's the main one I use Kirky with a 5k Stella, I've caught my PB dhu on that outfit. Love the sound of the braid singing through the guides when it takes off.
