Multiplier Overwind
So the SW was blowing this morning so I packed one bait and went to Orange Rocks, with high hopes.
There was lots of weed in the water, but I managed to get my bait out with no problems.
Then Bradley from Gremlins landed a small grey and we all got excited as it appeared that the fish had come back on the bite.
He had to go off to work, so he gave me a nice frozen Bonnny which I rigged up.
All good up to here……
First throw was about 120m, but I wanted to get further over the sand – because the tide was going out, there was lots of sand and the weed would have pulled my grapnel out.
So I attempt another throw and I really push it.
BANG……..
This was the result….LOL
It happened in a flash, I did not stand a chance.
With almost brand new Double X line (sob sob)
So off I went and there was not enough time to get another reel and go back….
WORK SUX … I wish that I could fish all day long !!

Get a grinder bru(LOL)..no bunches or a 4inch nail to pick it or come spin with me and I”ll show you how to throw for four hours on end with no overwinds!!!
Lol… Ja, it does not happen often. First big one in three years or so.
The thing is with overwinds..they happen when, conditions are great, your chommie is moering the fish next to you and some clever dick starts chuckling under his breath a few meters away and..he only fishes once a year!!!…By the way Shane, great site…if you like I will leave updates now and then from my side of the world….
Howzit bro. That would be great. Yea, this particular one happened because I was trying to get too clever. Casting into the wind. My first shot was fine, but I wanted to try and put it a bit further as there was alot of sand in the water. It was going fine, until it his a gust of wind and within 1 second…..crows nest of note. I had to cut that line off. Almost brand new Double X….
Keep well, brother !!
