Metro Sail

Thu, 2012-02-16 17:49

I cant find any records of them being caught in the metro, although i have seen one hanging up in the Freo sailing club i think in the late 80's. The way it played out we must of dropped the lure right on its head..had only just got the 4th lure out...

I must say it was hectic on deck because we weren't ready for it at all. We hadn't had any luck at all on the bottom Saturday night, we camped in Rotto, so we could head out to the FADS early Sunday. Well the wind was up so we went bottom bouncing again, on the north side of Rotto. Still no luck, one size pinki..that was it.. decided to drop lures and troll home, it was taken on a Pakula sprocket ( it can be seen in the back ground ), and a penn formula 15. The water temp was only 23 degrees. We weren't that deep of water either, trolled for a further two hours with nothing, we wouldnt of noticed anyway, we were to busy talking about what we just witnessed....
