Date:10-08-2023. Time:2330hrs. Rod: 9.6ft Ugly Stik. Reel: CTS 12000. Rig: Alo live bait. Bait: Live 5 inches Selar-pan
Went before sunset and manage to get few live herring as bait. Casted out but nothing caught. Tide full and turn down. Half way down got a hard pull on the rod alerted to me by a friend but didn’t hookup. The few live bait had finish by now and i had to switch back to dead one.
Not satisfy, i try jigging under my squid lamp and caught one big selar-pan. Quickly casted out. Around 2330hrs, while i was searching for squid, i heard my reel sounded. Grab hold the rod and strike hard…the fish go airbone..it jump few times before i bring it near jetty. Barracuda…i got my friend to get my landing net and lower into the water surface. I use the rod to steer the fish into it and my friend pull it up.
