Met up with fellow boardmember, Steel-Addicted, Sat morning and pounded the Sky from Sultan to BH.
Not much happening until an unlikely stretch when I set the hook on "a little bait-robber"....that is until my curado gave up about 30 yards of line!
This happened 3 more times!
We were sure it was a native and were scheming how to release it with minimum handling when I got it to the boat and saw it was a clipped down-river fish. 35" long snake.
Any of you been surprised by the energy of a hatchery fish?
I must say it was a real pleasure to meet and fish with another BB member. Very knowledgeable and a total gentleman.
Steel-Thanks again and hope we can get together again soon.
