Sting Me !

Hello all,

Tonight well last night ... we decided to take Master Shane out fishing for his last time for awhile as he be going into surgery on Wednesday.

The plan was to head out around 6:30pm to woodman's point jetty and throw out our big rods and also try some ballooning and finish around 11pm so Master Ron could study (don’t you love summer school).

Getting to woodman's point we were amazed at how many people were there on a Monday I mean it was PACKED ... fishing and crabbing which was not good for us but there was a small area at the end which we could of fished but the final straw was the sea lion hanging around.... so we head off to north mole which has been a fav spot for us. We baited up our big rods and casted them out with no time to waste.

1 hour later my rod went off and we were on ... maybe 5 or 10 mins later I landed myself a nice stingray which we had to keep due to damage done when we gaffed it so BBQ sting ray tomorrow ;)

30 mins later Master Shane’s rod went off also which ran for about 30 secs before losing it.... when we retrieved the rig we figured out a shark had bitten through the leader so we quickly swap them for some metal traces in hope to catch us a nice shark too.

Time passed by and it was nearly time to pack up then Master Ron had a run but he didn’t have a metal trace and was bitten off.

We waited a bit longer in hope of it to come back but time was up and we called it a night.

It was a great night for all of us even Fuji our mascot had his fun too but it's sad that it would be Master Shane’s last go for awhile until his knee is well enough.
