    Quick fish for a couple of hours close to home today as I had little miss "I feel sick" and a dog with me.
    Tryed right in close with the intention of staying till the top of the tide for maybe a snapper but got sick of unhooking these things.



    Must have caught at least 20 bucks worth of bait.



    Headed in to the never fail kahawai spot at the perfect time of the tide and the kids had 10 on board in about 4-5 min. Back of the boat covered in blood it was time to come in. Kept 4 kahawai for the smoker and gave the rest to a neighbor.

    Although the trip was more about building sandcastles and exploring sea caves, i did take the surf caster along.



    Managed to get one small snapper. Absolutely NOTHING in its stomach VC !!

    Yep, a real perk for the day. Never really get many blue cod up this way. One of my favourite eaters, just about as good as carrots.

    This raises a question, how many people actually target bait fish, and freeze them etc...

    Live bait yeah get it, but buying pilchards and squid (and burley) soon adds to the days cost.

    (I am trying to justify another freezer.....)
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    You are all grown up now Beaker (well as much as you are ever going to be) so you are allowed another freezer if you want one. Ha ha ha ha better check with the boss though.

    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

    @Beaker its a must to have a bait freezer, its like having a beer fridge. I keep all my skippy frames and old bait, when I have a reasonable amount in the freezer out comes the burly mincer. I have a regular supply of burly and bait, pipis frozen in punnets, bait fish and a bag of salt flake ice. Saves stopping on the way.
