    Headed down to bottle point 15 boats working the place over, hit spot #2 which usually is amazing but this day is was a massive spikey alley ...burley pot chewed up. Tried spots and depths fro 20 meters to 80 ..vc sorted out a nice 3lb brim then we tried and tried just short brim small cod sharks..tide ran out and every one hit the dtop off jigging like mad ...school of kings marking ...saw about 5 landed turned out to be shorts.

    Had a guts full of this headed back up the coast to a brand new dive spot ...VC studied the sounder worked the terain whilst I geared up ...krill / squat lobsters were drifting about the boat and using it for shelter ...none anywhere else just on this bit of turf

    Got the go dropped down on to cray crack straight up ( because VC is that good) saw six berried crays ...a million small cod butterfly perch and a great hole owned by a massivconger eel . Found a keeper buck ....turf was steep dropping from 12 -25 meters but bitter cold...did 2/3red of a tanl
    Went to dig our carrot patch 1 cod 1 small carrot and to bloody many spikes

    Home clean beer tea yarn bed ..up early grabbed a feed of mussels ..away home for hockey
    Yep, I also spent the weekend up there. Friday and Saturday night in Port Hardy......Prefect weather.
    Had my 15yr old daughter with me, I thought it was going to be a bit much for her for 3 days on the water but she done bloody well.
    We got some good cod, mainly trying for tarakhi and then got on to some good gurnard on the way back with a stonker of a cray

    It's been so long since Ive uploaded a photo I cant remember how to do it.
