Day 1 fishing in Coral Bay
Submitted by Cruise Control on Sun, 2015-07-26 19:26
Well it was bloody cold last night and it was still cold this morning. The wind was making its presence felt with a orecast of 22 knots, so we took the easy street and organised our gear ready to hit the water in the arvo when the wind dropped.
So at 12.30 a real gentlemans hour out we went on flat seas with no swell. It was intended to be a shakedown so we only went out to the 70's - fish were steady and the boys picked up a couple of nice ones. Elliot first with a solid Rankin followed by Dillon with a nice Red. Unfortunately the skipper failed to put a notable fish up and had to settle for a few spanglies.
going to do a longer run tomorrow chasing Reds so will report further then
