The hunt for that legal mulloway on lure has continued with yet another trip to the local river, the port river.
We got to our first mulloway spot after trying to nail some wiley bream, which were pretty much no where to be seen, at about 11am with near perfect conditions. It wasnt long until I had a hit but the fish dropped the lure straight away. So I let the lure sink and sit, I then saw the tell tale sign and my braided line slowly started tensioning. Stirke and I was on to the first "schoolie" for the day. (right)
The lure of choice for me was again the 4" Berkley Gulp minnow on a nitro 1/8 size jighead, and this was literally swolloed by this little mully, luckily for him he swam off fine.
Within probally about 10 casts after that mulloway was landed I was onto the next one, as soon as he was hooked he was not wanting to come up to meet the net, he tried to slug it down deep as long as possible. This one being still not legal but bigger than the last and very healthy. Not long after my fellow fishing companion was onto his first for the innings also no where near legal size. After this the bite seemed to shut down and we went in search of new territory to find the ever eluding legal mulloway, only to have bream hit our big plastics. So the chase is still on to find that big silver ghost.
Enjoy the pics
