Unkown Source - Some Smug B@%*&rd with his fishAnd once again, NOTHING, not even a nibble.
Bait wise, I have tryed prawns, I've tryed squid, and whiting - i really have no idea what I'm doing wrong, I'm not totally inexperienced - although its been a good 10years since i used to go fishing with my Dad. But we were usually on a boat.
To make matters worse my neighbour comes back with 3-4 Flathead EVERY TIME he goes down to the beach, Unbelievable. According to the locals there is a trick to it.
But none of them will tell me what it is.
So, any suggestions? -- I'll try anything.
I'm Surf fishing, either first thing in the morning (before 9 lol) or in the evening around 5.
I'm fishing about and hour before the incoming or outgoing tide.
I've caught fish without even trying, when my dad or DH don't. I think I just have weird luck.
ReplyDeleteI just play around. I'm impatient and I just reel it in when I get bored and go again. Although... last time I coaught a toad fish so wasn't too lucky :)
My 4 year old caught a tiny tiny bream first time she went fishing. Just have fun!
We always go fishing too but never catch anything ...I think it can still be called fishing :0)
ReplyDeleteNo one will tell you the secret? That's awful! Gardeners are unlike fisherman in that we freely spew advice...or or bad.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure there's a whopper with your name on it.
Thanks for the feedback,- i should clarify i do have fun fishing, i just wish i had something to show for it when i get home - if only to stop my husbands teasing.
ReplyDeleteThe local fisherman are all big burly guys, and i guess from the outside i appear a little prissy (but just because i look girly doesn't mean i am!) --seems like a bit of a boys club, and since i'm new in town not having much luck convincing them to play nice.
Thank-you so much for taking the time to comment :)
