We finally caught some

[Madeyes]

Took my son up to the Lachlan for 3 days over the weekend. We finally caught
some decent sized fish. 3 Yellowbelly between 3.5kg and 5kg, 2 good size
Trout cod up to 2kg (they went back after the photos) and 4 carp between 4kg
and 7kg (they are still up a tree).

We also "caught a strange looking fish, I say "caught" becuase my son
put his hand under it and lifted it out of the water. It did look a bit
sick. It was about 200mm long, very silver all over and had a groper like
short snout. We took a photo (if anyone is interested in helping to identify
it) and then put it back in the water.

My son also hooked up to something VERY big which bent the rod double
and broke a 30lb line. We'll get him next time.

We were using scrub worms and yabbies.

Good on ya. Nice to heardad and son having fun together..
My young bloke (5yo) got his first go of a spinning rod in the
back lake at Narooma earlier this year. He held it for all of 10
seconds, handed it back to me, and trudged off. :)

He'll learn :)
