The Woods Bays are running hot and cold at the moment. Shannon and Craig had a great session at the Woods, scoring two nice jacks and some healthy tailor among other assorted fish. The boys have had some trips that were less than stella recently. Just proves that you have to keep trying.

The recent social fishing comp also had mixed results. One who faired well was Justin Mcmahon.

Perfect weather greeted anglers  for the second round of the Hooked-On Catch and Release social comp and we had a excellent turn-out with 20 teams entering.

 Many teams found the fishing hard going with patchy results with lots of undersized fish being landed, but then the complete opposite for a couple of teams Like “Team I’m On” consisting of hard core anglers Tom Clancy and Toby Back who managed to land numerous fish including 10 measurable fish(and the guys are gunna work on their measuring as-well ) . They landed Trevally  , Tailor, Whiting and Flathead on a variety of lures from 2” Gulp Shrimp , Metal Slugs and Bass Day Sugapen ‘s were the trick on the whiting.

They moved around quite a bit not persisting with slow areas for too long . A couple of teams headed down from Gympie to fish and “Team Tropical Trout” had a good time using some of their bass techniques to Catch & release 7 nice trevally on Jackall TN60  & Chubby lures , they fished the first ski run area and stayed there for most the comp ,they just needed a fish or two of a different species to get the bonus points and they would have been well up the rankings.

This round of the comp was taken out by “Team B-Rad’ consisting of Justin Mcmahon and Hooked-On Team Member Brad Fuller, they landed many fish and had 12 measurable fish including Bream , Flathead and Tailor all their fish were taken on soft plastics with Squidgy wrigglers and gulp minnows being the gun choice .

Brad is currently leading the points for series and in writing this I hope I don’t put the moz on him. Results will be on our web site www.hookedon.com.au  Next round is on the 29th May so get your entries in early .

 Cheers Ed
