1st night fish in the sound

Had a great night, went to a spot we had some luck on during the day and someone elso was there, so just anchored up the ways a bit and baited up with the fresh squid we caught earlier today and pulled in quite a few small and just undersize Snapper, non size but hey thats life.

As usual a few rays and one bite off, then my wife had a nice run and we called it for another Ray, she struggled and hauled a nice Gummy to the surface, I had the net in hand and she got the head in then the Gummy just started spinning and got nicely tangled in the net, and aboard he came.

A few pics (attached) and off with the head n guts and tail and into the slurry.

Sorry to the wife in advance, she looks like a stunned deer in headlights with the flash going off in her face after staring out in the dark, but she was wrapped with her catch, though initially shite scared of the thing coming aboard.

Great night out, nice weather, cant wait to do it again,

PS : I don't reckon you need to apologise to your wife.
