    Well the fishing was skinny for us today! Out early set hook lines good swell running . Set baits soaking and burley good current everything you need ....except for the fish...sharked to death two spikies rest grey boys more user friendly but a lot more teeth.

    Calmed off so pulled hook line to our first cluster f//k. Went deep set hook line and burley again less sharks less every thing ...wind kicked up ..pulled hookline to our second cluster fk ...headed in out of the weather pulled hook line #2 tiny carrots and grey boys ...

    Then my phone rings some how it has made its way from the bow dash board to under the floor mid way down the boat! Summed up our day nicely! Pulled the pin went ticky touring spotting rays yarning etc . Not a bad day out not our best day out ...thanks VC just for a chance to wet a line! Next time mate next time

    I assume the 2 wind bars are min and max or gusts?

    15kts for when we arrive there.
    Any fish being caught Sarvo?

    That's because the only wind you get up there is generated on days the lattes are on special.
    All you dorklanders sit outside

    This is some what true - no sand flies, generally good weather, etc.... so normally nice to sit outside.
    Although the Fucking flies can sometimes piss you right off, but then the wind gets up and they go away........ and then the fishing is crap...... so get another latte... (personally still can't work out all the coffee options up here. Flat white. Simple.)

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
