Dhuies don't get much better

We were anchored 1.5 miles out on the dhuies edge ,the burly pot over the side .Jody has just lost one dhuies and released a sambo around 10kg.We looked over the side and there he was a dhuies 4m of the bottom checking out the burly pot ,we were in 16m 0f water and could see the bottom. Jody wasted no time getting here line in the water ,the dhuies followed her line down to the bottom and she was on .A good fish in shallow go hard ,three big runs from the top to the bottom and she was knackered Jody that is .Haven’t seen her puffin that hard for a while. The dhuies went 15kg .We released a snapper and some BBs and dropped a couple off dhuies.A great day. Will head out for a double dive tomorrow as the water was nice and clear. Will have the camera with me for some vid and pics.

Well done Jody. Sounds like a great experience. I caught my first Dhuie in shallow water, just about pulled me out of the boat. Sight casting for Dhuies - Does it get any better. Good write up Paul.

not sure were you have been fishing

Sun, 2010-06-27 20:49

but just because some dont post about their catches doesnt mean they are not catching.There was 2 15kg plus and one that would have been every bit of 20 landed off ocean reef today a couple around 14 to 17 caught and released mid week.Still a lot of big dhu around at the moment just need to know where to lookLaughingAt that is why people that have done the time and the yards still catch when others dont.A few biggens south of the river too.
