    Wanted to take the boy for a fish this afternoon....tides all wrong to launch further north so went to @mikee 's secret spiky dog spot. Holy cow they were on the bite! Stopped using bait and were catching them even on softbait rigs!


    Even caught them in the burly pot!





    Got just enough pesky by catch of gurnard for tea.

    Holy shit, @mikee must be spreading the word ...went out to the spot where @sambnz showed me how to soft bait gurnard and had the same result , never caught a spikie on a softie before until now!

    Took the old man out for a fish today screaming southerly eased for a couple of hours,Lis had B&E pie at the ready and Ma had her rod in the boat faster than you can say I'm going fishing ..the old boy gave me the have you seen the forecast etc speech, to which I replied ok we will see you when we get home! Strangly enough he was in the boat when we were at the ramp! I checked with a couple of guys who were coming in and the gale had eased...phew! ..in the water and away...bit of shit coming out of squally then we were shelter by the coast ..down to a handy spot and with zero swell we tucked tight in close to the rocks ...got another what are we doing he...rod bent grunt holy shit..silence as the old chap put a 52cm blue cod in the boat.. we boated our eight fat as blue cod in quick time none close to Da's in size.

    Then took the chance on our deep gurnard spot only to find it was filled from top to bottom with spikies, the wind kicked up again as the tide turned and we beat a hasty retreat home! Lis said Ma was stoked and so was the old chap not that he would say so...happy 72 BDay dad you grumpy old bugger ..love and respect you
