Awesome friday

 Got to work yesterday morning ready to pour concrete, bobcat hasn't been the boss says lets go fishing, don't have to ask me twice might as well take my boat I said so we can pull my pots that I hadn't pulled for a week so we race home I hook up the boat grab some roughy heads for the pots an a fishing rod and tackle bag he's bringing the squid an mulies get to the ramp no boss ? Give him a ring he's not coming started spewing when he got home shit I said now I got no bait boats in the water looks like I'm just pulling the pots , get out there not expecting to much as they hadn't be pulled since last Friday fist pot comes up 15 Crays at least 6 big jumbo females either berried or tar spot few kakas and four good keepers nice start I think so I go to bait it up an think that's a nice chunk of flesh on that roughy head so I cut it of set the pot back on a nice lump and thought might just drop that chunk of roughy over here within 40 seconds is hitting the bottom bang I'm on an thinking shit this feels ok an up pops 68cm of Dhuie bloody hell that'd the shit I'm thinking 4 Crays and a Dhuie in 10min so I go and pull the other pot take my pick of another four Crays from that pot and head back smiling like a fat kid in cake shop I get to the coat hanger an think a couple squid would be nice so I throw a jig out the back on the slowest troll speed I can do and head towards the muscle farm and within minutes I've got two nice squid and heading back to the ramp with a smorgasbord. Happy friday
