Barron River Bridge 30/12/06
Went to the bridge again yesterday at about 4:00am.
Got a good amount of bait, only one sardine, and about a dozen reasonably sized whitebait.
Had a good shower come over which gave me and the other 5 guys there a wet bum over about 10 minutes.
Lost all of 'em to presumably small school jew of around 20cm - all 3 I caught and landed (the 20cm mark at best) were returned to the water to fight again another day.
Had several good "pulls" on the line and by that I mean that the rod tip bent down about 3cm and was then let go on a lot of baits, unsure of what this was; seemed like the fish was mouthing the bait before taking it. Seems a strange tactic for a fish on live bait, but all the it happened nonetheless.
By about 7:00am I had lost all my bait and decided to have a go at getting some prawns.
Got 17 prawns all up with some good size Bananna prawns amongst them mixed in were a couple of 'leader prawns' as well as two tigers. So a good feed all the same and better than a trip home with nothing! :-)
