Todays fish..

Just a couple photos from today's short session on the rocks. The weather was relatively warmer than the previous days and the wind had died down, it was also more overcast but quite pleasant. The fish was weighed at 1.8kg and it put up an impressive fight. It grabbed a Big Bite 4.5" Shaking Squirrel on a 7g Jobee weedless jighead near the base of the boulders I was standing on. I wanted to experiment with straight lures and obviously they work... Although I'm pretty sure that at this time of the year they will attack anything!
A perfect hookhold.


The wrasse season has trully started so I'm hoping we will see some nice fish this year. All the best to fellow rock anglers and tight lines!
