7/6/2008 off point Peron
Got a last minute call from STAAL LOVER saturday arvo to launch off Pt Peron. Was on the water by about 3pm. The wind hadnt died down by as much as I was expecting, so the surface was rough, but there wasnt much seas or swell under it.
Headed out to a spot and picked up a scorpion cod on a drift baited squid tentacle. Didnt even know it was a fish as it just felt like dead weight. Something else hooked up that was probably a cuttlefish but it came off halfway up.
Switched to a taikabura jig and laced it with a bit of occy and managed to pull up a dhufish. First for my new calcutta combo so was a nice fish to christen it on. PB dhuie too, but at 59cm/3kg it wasnt massive compared to what you other guys catch but I was pretty happy with it
Lots of fish on the sounder but they didnt seem all that hungry. Rodney managed to hook up to a fish but it came off pretty quick as well. Apart from that the only rod bends were from terra firma (and I hear thats not good eating).
Tried around sunset light change but nothing interested. Headed in near the boat ramp to try for some squid but I only managed one.
Worked out pretty well by my standards getting a good feed and a nice fish on a good combo, but it was a pity Rodney or his mate didnt catch any
