We had bust ups everywhere and spent the arvo stickbaiting”. On Monday they went out yet again and went 4 from 5.

There was no size to them but no matter how hard we tried, everywhere on our 10km Journey we encountered fiesty squire!” he also noted that “The Jackson Dart Magicwas irrestible today and accounted for all 20+ fish, with a slick of Saxscent Wasabi ensuring the Fish could smell my lure from afar!”
