Tell us more... what did you take her on? What kind of structure? How was the fight?
From what I've been reading bigger fish are just about there. Have fun.

thank Sam, I got the 1st one Sat. in Plymouth harbor, and the 2nd in Bass river by the high bank bridge. Got then both on the chartreuse and white clouser, both little schoolies. I do have a question on the retrieve - how fast,how varied etc... - thanks Punch:)

Depends on a number of things Punch. Where they are holding or cruising, what they are eating, how fast the water is moving, their comfort and hunger level... etc. Usually, a slow retrieve with some pauses will produce. Try mixing up the retrieve and depth of your fly until you find what works.
