Golden Snapper and Grouper.

Date: 03-06-2024. Time:1930 hrs. Rod: Penn Slamner 9 ft. Reel : Reelsking 10000. Bait: Frozen Herring.

Went there a bit late as the sky don’t look good on the early evening. Afraid that i may not able to get fresh bait when i reach there so I grab two frozen tambans from freezer for the first cast.

First cast out and i go jig for fresh bait. Luckily i manage to get enough fresh bait for the night. When sky start to turn dark, i notice my rod tip rattle. First i thought it was people knock on the jetty railing that cause the rod to shake. But when the line start to slack, i grab the rod and strike. Wind back line and a palm size fingermark snapper surface up. I used the rod to haul it up.

Friend Jumbo Li come to join me around 2230 hrs. He first cast out with a green eye squid strip bait landed a 1.2kg grouper. I use my squid net to scoop it up for him.
