Jackson Sweet with a solid salmon that took him for a good ride on Saturday morning. He was fishing the Hacking River on the incoming tide and trying to match the hatch as the salmon were feeding on small baitfish, and the Bassday Sugapen 70mm (4.3g) was the closest he had. He used a classic walk-the-dog action by flicking the rod tip on a constant retrieve to make the lure dart from side to side.
