Epic ski session
Ventured out into the fog this morning. 2mins from the ramp I was pretty much lost, couldn't see the land or the sun, my bearings were truly scrambled. I had launched at Safety Bay and the plan was to fish Warnbro Sound, somehow I bypassed long point and by the time I could get reception on my phone to check the navionics app I was down Secret Harbour way! 1st cast on the reefs my Richter plug was enialated and bitten off by a solid tailor. Long story short, after an hour i had bagged out on some solid tailor, released 15-20 and lost plenty more.
Back at the ramp I had stirred up quite the fuss with the old sea dogs who hadn't seen tailor that size in the metro area for many years. I didn't measure the fish but the biggest would've have been 60-65cms. Pulled into the workshop on the way home to give the fish away and it was funny watching the boys fight over all the fish haha. Cheers Beau

I didn't, but the boys
I didn't, but the boys must've gone and bragged because I got a phone call ten minutes down the road, "if you want to keep your job you're going to tell me where you caught them tailor!"

Oh well next time you are back we will meet up and head out together for some winter fishing fun.

Yerrr, nice Beau, never hard
Yerrr, nice Beau, never hard to find tailor when your on the water, landbased fishos must hate us that can continually get into good tailor not far from shore with the sun well up. Dont bleed your tailor Beau?

Yep, I agree, its not like
Yep, I agree, there is spots that hold fish, its not like they just dissapear in the middle of the day, I love trollin past beach fishos packin up late morning and hookin up. Its just easier to find the fish on a boat trolling esp featureless beaches etc and accessing offshore reefs
