Dunsborough Pink

Managed this Pink off Dunsborough on the weekend on line. Was a great spot, managed two pinkies and a size dhuie which was released.

Also some big skippy.

He went 11kg and a touch over 100cm long. Caught him on 8kg and he gave me some curry. All fish caught with heaps of burley and floating mulies out the back.

Great fish from the bay for this time of the year. What the f### are the pros netting in the bay for. I was under the impression they were not allowed to do this. The bay is already under a lot of pressure at this time of the year without the pros raping it.

Yeah didnt see any pro's but

Yeah didnt see any pro's but its a shame to hear they are in the bay. I think this spot would produce fish consistently with alot of burley and patience. That said will probably go next time and catch nothing. hopefully get that dhuie when he grows a bit bigger.

 

Also funny how boats see you in a spot an anchor right on top of you. Its a big ocean. At one point we almost hit a boat while were were on the drift, had to start the mottor and motor away as they were anchored.
