Adam was walking around the Garden of Eden feeling very lonely, so God asked Adam, “What is wrong with you?” Adam said, “Lord, I don’t have anyone to talk to.” God said, “Then I will give you a companion, and she will be called ‘woman’. This person will cook for you and wash your clothes, she will always agree with every decision you make. She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will not nag you, and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you’ve had a disagreement. She will never have a headache, and will freely give ‘love’ and compassion whenever needed. She will never question your behaviour or the company you keep. She will support you and understand that you have important decisions to make throughout your life and don’t have time for nonsense…” Adam asked God, “What will this woman cost?” God said, “An arm and a leg…” Adam said, “What can I get for just a rib?”

Tackle Talk By Graeme Sinclair
In the north the big snapper arrived and this is the time I seriously target big beasts and hunt down other species like kingfish. This period is like a breath of fresh air in many ways, the days start to lengthen and the breeze loses its edge and assumes that warm gentle caress we associate with summer. It is also a time when baits, live or fresh dead baits, can be lethal although by the end of November soft bait fishing will be hotting up and slow jigs such as the Prowler range will come in to their own.
Yes, this is the time my pulse starts to quicken and although I use my share of pilchards and squid I am always after fresh piper and mullet. A whole piper rigged with a hook in the head and a second in the gut cavity finished with a half hitch of trace round the tail is the way I do it. Snap the little spike off the nose and if you can’t float the bait down current naturally use a small ball sinker. To stop the ball sinker from riding up the trace I tie a rubber band round the line and slide the band on top of the sinker and push both until they connect with the bait.
The trick then is to spool your bait in to your burley trail (if you are at anchor) and let the spool glide under your thumb. It’s all about natural presentation and any snapper worth having will be all over that
bait like a rash. It pays to let them run a bit. I tend to keep the rod tip down, let the fish run, count one, two, three, smack up the drag and hit them.
At times the take can be tentative and that means modifying your approach. Feel the take and hit them hard straight away. This is the sort of fishing I really enjoy. It often produces good sized fish and harks back to the days before soft baits and slow jigs.
This week, half an hour before I left home, my neighbour dropped in a dozen fresh mullet. Within an hour they were being scaled and cut in to long strip baits before plunging in to the Tiri Channel.
We didn’t even anchor, just drifted from school to school. From what I have seen we are in for a good summer. It looks as though the fish are moving in early and the water temperature is higher than it was at the same time last year.
Start with your trusty old bait but prepare for the thrill that accompanies soft baiting. Pretty soon it will be all on. Have a great summer!
