Yeah been going out each week for something else different to do..
There are fewer bigger ones around now with the days left coming to an end so it takes a bit longer to get your bag but there are shirt loads of smaller ones or just size !!!
Got bashed around something cruel this morning on the reefs but still a good laugh especially with 5 of us all crashing into each other !!!
Wind dropped off late morning/arvo and turned into a killer day out there and ducked around to the back of the island for a free dive to snare some crays, hard work not as fit as I used to be { mental note must finish making that hookah for the rest of the season}...
Agree with Paul G too damn hot back on the mainland !!!!
Cheers fishfish ...

Has been the best year yet,
Has been the best year yet, So far it's been flat and you can get your bag in 10 min. Two weeks ago I got my first 100mm and over, last week I got 6, but only 1 today as I was in a hurry.
Thanks for the tip on where to look Tony.

Having done it for the last
Having done it for the last 4 or 5 seasons, this year has been awesome weather wise. Flat seas and low swell. Always easy to get a bag in a short time but have to search a little harder if your after the big boys. Out the back and a good breath hold is the way to go ;)
