Title: GT Popping Karratha
Post by: Jay Burgess on May 25, 2007, 09:27:28 PM

Went out after work today to test our outboard after we lowered it on the transom. Couldn't resist throwing a couple of poppers around. Action was hot at the start with about 6 strikes resulting in 2 hookups within about 15min. Landed my first GT (woohoo ), no monster but glad to nail my first. Glenn got one a bit bigger. As the tide peaked the bite stopped instantly and there was no action for the remainder of the evening.
