Exmouth Trip First GT, First Marlin! (Pic Heavy)

Just got back from Exmouth and had planned this trip starting with Eddy on Peak sportfishing and then out on our own with hire boats from Exmouth boat hire.

Leading up to the dates the weather was beauftiful but unfortunately for us that all changed when we got there, we left on the Thursday and the weather went back to beautiful forecasting wind being around 5knots with swell 0.7-0.8m today, just my luck  :(

Our hire Boats were unproductive with one of them going to waste as we didn't even bother to launch.

We did however get lucky on the day of the charter and got at least one great day of fishing, anyways here are some pics of the trip.

 

First GT ever on a plastic :P

We fished the marina at night, Bundegi flats and a little down at Sandy bay didnt turn up with much got a few follows and some serious bites from some decent fish but no hookups.

Had a look down the end of mildura road but the wind was pretty rough to fish there.
