Title: Pilbara 7-3-09
Post by: Jay Burgess on March 08, 2009, 04:24:55 PM: Got out yesterday, weather was great but there was almost nil tidal movement. Managed two fish on Bigfoots one around 20kg and one around 15kg and a few other hits that didn't hookup. Got some footage so made up a vid of the day. Hope you enjoy it.

Not very long, the first fish was on my 2nd cast and the second fish was on my 5th cast. We don't always get that lucky though. Usually if there's fish there you'll get hit reasonably straight away.
