Big Ian 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Last weekend I managed to get away with some mates for some fishing staying over pine point way.I did Ok on the light gear chasing some salmon, this fish gave me a good run for nearly 10min.I lost the next fish I hooked when the split ring let go at the side of the boat. :(and when I got home to look at my pics I noticed why. : : http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/AeJKjnxI__pine_point_salmon_800x600.JPG[/img] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leethal 1 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Far out looks like they were slamming it Ian, would of been good fun on light stuff though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jagger 24 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Sorry mate, should have explained a bit better. ;)I meant the rating on the split ring. Gives a good idea of just what a good fish can do to quality tackle ;DNice fish either way, 10min battle would be great 8) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jupiter 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Nice salmon big ian, great fun on the light gear. but the reason that split ring let go is because it looks like a lure bigw/kmart sell? I had one to throw around dodgy bust off area's.Probably not the best split rings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Ian 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 yes your right about that lure, but I had changed the split ring already :icon_e_surprised:It was one of those times where I had tried many lures until I found this colour worked on the day.
