Swan Fish 2010

Sorry for the late report but finally got time to post it up here.

Swan fish 2010 was to be our first comp even for the team with our star line up of Shane, Ron and myself with special guest of mark who was a pro bream fisher before and won 2004 bream comp I think it was.

Anyway the day start early at 9 am which some of don’t usually wake up haha but I was surprised to have the whole team ready at my house waiting on the dot (as I was cooking pancakes for breakfast)

Our plan was to head to Point Walter for some big flatties then to Guildford then Claremont to camp for the night but plans never go to plan haha.

Well we did end up starting at Point Walter but all there was, were blowies and schools of mullets.




Next was Applecross jetty which was pretty quiet also before we had our lunch break and this is where we kind of got side tracked haha. Just nearby Applecross jetty is a small cafe called Next Cafe which had some great food and good price too but the best thing was the coffee we ended up almost trying all their coffees and DAM ! they were dam nice !. The long glass one which was called snowing Alps I think really looks cool and taste freaking awesome.




Just as we finish our little side adventure the pressure started to fall which and wasn’t looking to great with winds picking up too but we pushed on with no fish in our score board yet.

Next was canning bridge but ended to be packed with people so we moved to just outside the bridge with also no luck. At this time mark had to leave us for a bday dinner.

Then it just got even more horrible later we ended up camping at Claremont jetty for the rest of the night and it was just horrible. Windy choppy and worst was the water was murky we could spot any of the flathead that usually stay around the light post. We ended called it a night and said we try next year as this year wasn’t ours.

Anyway we had fun to bad we didn’t get any fish but we are ready for next year at least.
