Oh What A Feeling!

Fourth in a row it was me yet again with my partner in crime Mr Chen visiting playground straight after work. Rucked up with chen outside of Myer's bus-stop and went back to grab our gear. It was already starting the outgoing and by the time we were there, the sky was dark. Rigged up the usual tool in crime and straight up on the first cast I had scored a hookup. Luckily the worm was intact and continued with 2 more smallies swung back up to the land. This worm had to be the lucky worm when it was the 'fat lady dance' kind of hookup we've always dream of achieving. Fought exactly like the previous "almost cannot make it" 38 model and there it was, a 36cm bream that made Stradics singing drag entertained us.

Thanks for the piccy bro. This time round the release was faster and the bugger didn't pose any problems. Chen landed a few and missed heaps, and always a hoot to hear Tierra's sudden short bursts. The bites went quiet and both of us had a fair share of wind knots yet again on the "really cannot make it" yamatoyo braid. Whilst both of us were sitting down on the ledge and chilling out talking heaps of shits, my Tango was loaded up and put up quite a respectable run. Heaps of headshakes had me thinking a flattie while Chen was contemplating a jew. He wanted me to say: "I Love Glebe man..." but I resisted and told him a NO NO, cos' it must be a jew before any angler can say that, lol.. (don't ask me why, message GTK and ask him why). Anyways, turns out it was a big whiting and Chen was like telling me that's a pb-breaker for sure. My fingers were crossed hoping that it was but tamade... 38cm!

Oh well, still, it was the best fun I've got compared to the previous big whitings I've caught. Knew that whitings has a history of being hard to release but this one luckily was ok. Few more last casts and our tummy made us gave up fishing and head for a nasi campur fix down at Randwick.. oh what a feeling!
