@goosehd said in Catch of the day [Fishing]:

pushing shopping carts (trolleys?) into the local waterways

That's how they got there, it is the repurposing that I like......

Gear is a bit light for this kind of fishing

... but not the pants they are XHS!

[Giles]

That looks my kind of fishing....Target species?

[aksu]

@Giles Sea trout. I'm more used to fresh water fishing. Was nice, no trouts thought

[Giles]

Looks like good Bass territory. I saw a beaut of a sea trout jump about 5 meters from my rod tip whilst fishing for Bass last week....

Popped out for a quick 30 minutes at high tide today. Not massive, and no way of gauging its size in the photo, but a lovely fish. Put back to live another day....

Just catching up with the thread and there’s been some awesome fish caught. @Mizmazzle you're living my dream fishing the locations you do for amazing species of trout!

My season was quieter than normal but I had some great fish when I did get out. The salmon was landed on a high bank and was released straight after the photo. It was a good year for them this year which makes a change.

@Sean94 holy smokes!! Looks like you’ve got into some hogs yourself!! Beautiful fish my man!!

[Sean94]

@Mizmazzle yeah all in all not a bad season. I didn’t get to fish much after mid June due to house renovations though. Our first born is due next March so I’ll probably fish even less next season.

Despite that I messaged Chris Barclay for one of his small stream specials.. 6’4” 3/4 blank rolled in Japan, Kineya hardware and a curly birch reel seat from Finland, guides etc from the states and built in NC by Chris. I might get to fish it in a couple years!

@Sean94 that is a thing of incredible beauty right there!! Hand it down to the kid one day too!! Congrats on the little tike coming your way!

Hi I treated myself to a new light/ultralight 2-10 gram spinning rod for Christmas and caught my first January bass in the harbour. Caught on 3 gram jig head with a Berkley gulp worm 6lb braid 5lb flouro leader and a slow retrieved. This year I’m going going smaller and lighter in a hope to catch more fish.

[Giles]

Beaut of a fish....

[aksu]

@Gammaman beautiful

Is that shimano soare rod perhaps? I think I have the same reel. Bought myself a christmas present aswell. Super shallow spare spool and a heftier knob. Not a huge fan of ultra thin knob of 2000 vanquish. Going to be a long long winter before I get to use these

[Giles]

Oh, we're talking new tackle are we. Just bought one of these (in Japan for about 1/2 western price), the S86XX Longcast.

I am absolutely fascinated with the RG Guide System, and can't wait to give it a go...

[Giles]

Bonito - Are usually a bycatch when I am fishing for bigger stuff. But on the right tackle, they are a lot of fun, and they are as powerful as hell…..

[Mizmazzle]

I agree.
