Estuary Lure Fishing Article

This article is about the times when lures outfish the dead baits I use in the estuaries. Not a regular occurrence, but a good feeling when it happens!

Bust Off Stories

Everyone has one.  You know. A story about the "one that got away". Well here are some of mine.


Ouch!

Whilst flicking lures up a small creek that feeds into the Brunswick River, Muzza threw his lure a little too high and snagged it in a tree. Natural instinct it to try to pull it clear. Muzza pulled the line and dragged the boat towards the tree to unhook his lure. We got to within about 3 metres of the tree when the lure dislodged from the tree and, whack, came flying back to wards the boat at a high rate of knots. The result is pictured below.......
 
 


Muzza with two out of three hooks stuck in his leg after trying to un-snag a lure from a tree.

Muzza ended up at Mullumbimby Hospital to get the trebles cut out f his leg. Not a good way to end a days fishing!
