Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

great to see you wearing your PFD. Got called to another drowning today, couldn't attend, others recovered the body. Not sure of the full details and will wait for the formal report and press release. PFD's save lives wear them.

@veitnamcam how did you go today?

It is a wonder that boat didn't sink being upside down,nice fish.

Obviously at the bottom f the Island

Stupid phone must have uploaded it the wrong way, defiantly not my fault

Oh I have been slacking on this thread.

Stephens trip a while back, hooked a donky king lost it at the start of the leader ,a few snap and cod/jock stewarts.

Out this arvo for a gurnard...wanted to go further afield for a snap and king but alas had to work the AM.

Launching just before low tide I had a good hour of serenity as expected but as soon as the tide started to run it was all go
BIG kahawai and lots of gurnard, high at 8pm ish I had planned to fish till then but on the steam out I realised I had no headlamp or spotlight or fuck all so as dusk approched the 40hp got wound out for an extended period! Cleans the plugs .

Didnt bother counting out there but maybe I should have as I come in with only 2 shy of my limit of 20 fin fish and I released quite a few small gurnard.
Of course I caught a few sharks but only 4 total and only two were spiky fekers

shelf full of fish bar the milk bottle.

Took a mate out for a gurnard this morning. flasher rigs in the water at 8 and by 10am the chilly bin was looking pretty bloody good so I took a break to cook some fallow back steaks for breakfast. Then headed into the boulder bank to try for a cod....only 2 undersized caught.
Inspected by the mpi boat which was all good of course and back on dry land at 11 with around 15 gurnard and a couple kahawai.
We had released quite a few smaller gurnard and big Kahawai it was going off with hookups pretty much as soon as the gear hit the bottom....I even caught a panni snapper that while legal was a bit small so released also.

Gunna tow my boat up after the SI shoot sometime. You can steer it to some snapper spots and then swim back. Unless you want to hang around watching the water being thrashed to foam.

Haven't made solid plans yet. Will depend on the whitebaiting and weather but I have a heap of time off so want to get up there for a snapper this year. I will txt you to see when it suits you.
