broadwater

Hit the broadwater this morning on the hunt for some salmon had a look up the seaway but found the current to strong  is about hour to high tide so move over to the north wall off straddie at the very end before the wall stop's

Fished with slimy mackeral as bait caught a few bream biggest whent 34cm  soon after single birds started diving on the the bait fish though this should bring on the salmon well within five minutes my mates rod go of like a steam train hooked on to a salmon its jumping everywhere great to watch after ten minutes or so get him to the net first try got him high five's everywhere  he whent 68cm on the brag mate caught him on 10lb line no leader and long shank hook that was only just hooked amazed it never came off.

Then went of for a troll to see if we could get some more on hardbodys but managed a good flattie to my mate rod again flattie fell to a red and white rapala.

Things went pretty much quiet by then so gave it away at 11am great day out.
