Name / Username of Angler: Dan/Hobie_Fisherman
Fish Type: Australian Salmon
Length: 48cm (fork)
Date/Time of Capture: 02/09/06
Location of Capture: Bluefish Point, Sydney.
Type of Lure/Bait used: Soft plastic stick bait, 4lb braid, 6lb vanish leader
Comments: Thanks to David (spotted a school of salmon on the surface) I was able to get my plastic in the middle of the school. It was hit on the first wind of my reel and an awesome 10min fight followed. It made some serious long dives (20 metres of water) and took me around in circles a few times. Once it was finally too tired to run I was able to scoop it into the yak as I had lost my net overboard that morning. Its amazing how you quickly forget about your sea sickness when you have a fish attached to your line. Great day - awesome fun on light gear.

Sorry for posting twice - left my PC logged on after posting and it somehow did it twice 30 minutes latter????
Just a quick question.... As Davey G is the judge does this exclude his entries as he did have a catch worth points for September?? Should there be a non yakker who can judge so Dave can be included?
