Got out for a fish this mornin
Attachment 4553
Weather was a bit crap so didn't stay for the tide and we had a good feed so quit while ahead so to speak.
These were a long way off shore but another couple of weeks should have the schoolies in shore fishing range

We got 13 Snaps last Saturday, (you must be keener than me mate). 4 were over 20lb, biggest at 25lb. They were caught on a Long Line tho and a long way out in the bay. King Fish will be here soon too.Quote:

Nice Mikee :cool:
Dunno what they weighed havent got any scales, I guess the biggest would have been 18 20p(bit big to be a "nice" eater) and the others probably 12-15p perfect eating size;)
The chilly lid on the left is around 650-700mm long(at a guess)
Well done VC. That is more than a good feed.

The other fillet off it will feed my two elderly neighbors for a couple of nights:cool:
Good of you to give the neighbours a feed VC.

Yep those 35cm-45cm ones are the best,any really big suckers go back and anything under about 32cm even tho the limit is 25cm:wtfsmilie: Couldn't bring myself to kill one that small.Get f all off it and in a few years it would feed a few easy.
Out for a couple hours evening fish last night, Just off boulder bank in 10-12m. Got one big fat karwhy one big gurnard one nice Brim round 35cm and 5 or 6 little uns that would have been legal but went back as to small.
