Dhufish Double
Took my boy out yesterday for a shot at getting his first Dhu and we weren't dissapointed!
Home by 10am with a nice 60cm model for him and a 66cm for me.
We keeping passing each other in the house making the peace sign at each other as in two - TWO DHUFISH DAD!!!
What an awesome morning and a great memory for the both of us.
I'm so proud of his attitude towards dealing with fish - he's very respectful of how to treat them, always insisting on a humane and quick dispatch.
I'm far from a religious person but we always say a small thank you to the fishing gods for the fish that give their life for us to enjoy our sport and to be able to feed the family.
Caught about half a K behind Five Fathom Bank in the Rockingham area on single hook (6/o) Paternoster using Occy for bait.
Managed a quick bit of video and a couple of pics. Enjoy in HD. 49 secs.

Nice work mate
Good to see the youngster into it. There is no such thing as religion as far as i'm concerned .All that causes is problems.

Perfect
Conditions, eating size, perfect pair, nuthin beats Father-Son sesh's that tick the boxes. Cool vid, what's in the crumb mix can I ask?
I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.

Hey tim-o, pretty basic crumb
Hey tim-o, pretty basic crumb mix, we make our own crumbs - the difference is worth the 10 minutes stuffing around. Just seasoned with mixed herbs and salt and pepper.
Sometimes we use a bit of chilli salt for something a bit different.
For anyone else that is interested in how you can crumb fish you can find our recipe in this thread http://fishwrecked.com/forum/safety-bay-herring

Top work
Great stuff to be getting your son on to a top fish, a day I'm sure he'll remember and a nice vid to go with it. I can't wait for my son to be old enough to get him out to do the same.

hey Boppo I remember you PM'd
hey Boppo I remember you PM'd me sometime ago when you were looking for one - glad you found yours, doesn't seem to be many 4.9's over here.
Yep we got the 5.2 and love it too - a pure fishing boat.
So easy to lauch and retrieve, stable at rest and eats up the chop. You can go twenty miles out or in literally inches of water when we're chasing Bream down at Walpole.
Amazing amount of deck space - they look, feel and handle like a much bigger boat
I like the look of the new Sailfish Reefmasters - saw one down at Walpole earlier this year with twin Honda 60's on it with the transom extending out between the motors. Beautiful looking boat and the thing just flew.

Thanks Simo. Edited this with
Thanks Simo. Edited this with Sony Movie Studio Platinum 13.
Still working on the best render settings but I think I may finally have it nailed.
Sometimes I'll use the free version of GoPro Studio but i find the timeline on the Sony program a bit easier to use.
