All at Jones's Tackle are pleased to welcome Nigel back on staff, he's been away for a year or so and it's great to have all his knowledge on tap again. Nigel loves his freshwater fishing and with his friends, Alvin and Steven, recently managed to secure a fishing trip at the Monster Murray Cod retreat in the New England area of NSW. Monster Murray Cod is a fishing retreat on a private property which has 5 lakes stocked with Murray Cod. They are only opened over the weekend and allow a maximum of 4 anglers.
With the bookings made, Nigel called his mates overseas to check if they were keen to fish for the famous native fish the mighty Murray cod. Fortunately they were free this time and immediately booked their flights to Brisbane and got all their gear organised. They decided to target the fish mainly using topwater and big bait lures.

As dawn broke over Hervey Bay on Anzac Day 2010, Jones's Tackle team member Dan Saville along with good mates Sam and Todd were heading out under the guidance of Paul Dolan (Fraser Coast Sportfishing) to launch an attack on the light tackle sportfish that call these waters home.
The boys set out for Platypus Bay hoping to spin their first Longtail tunas. After boating a dozen or more Mack Tuna, the peak time for Longtails was at hand so the crew headed North in search of these speedsters. The schools were flighty, but precise boat positioning and accurate casting saw each of the boys landing their first Longtails. As the sun rose higher the fishing hit a whole new level with plenty of double and triple hook ups.
Over the last 8 years Paul Dolan has been the leader in the use of Snap Back Jerkshads on Tuna and on the day they proved deadly in Bubblegum and Blue Glimmer colours. Tuna also fell to Yozuri Hydro Pencils with amazing surface strikes that will leave fond memories with the boys till they return....
For any information on the article or the gear used to tame these fantastic Sportfish drop in and see the crew at Jones's Tackle. For queries on taking a Sportfishing charter for the day, speak to the crew or check out Paul's website http://www.frasercoastsportfishing.com.au/

In their last blog Lyn and Neil mentioned that the weather was only marginal for the northern waters of Moreton Bay; well the Monday of the Anzac Day long week-end was decidedly more challenging with winds to 25 knots and a good 1.5 metres of sea running most of the day. The lure of fast Tunas can make most things bearable!
The bait was very small and as the pics show the venerable Snapback shone through again.
