Exmouth trips
Submitted by carnarvonite on Sat, 2009-09-19 18:53
Went up to Exmouth to see the kids and have a quick fish while Jeff had time off the trawler over the full moon.
Got two reds and a spangly and fed an albatross on the first day.
On the second day Adam came along for the ride.Dropped the boat in at Tantas,set the trolling gear up and headed out towards the hundred metre line.
Adam got a double header of goldband and time to troll south.Got a small red,an at the time an unknown to us but I've forgotten its name and a shark that released itself right next to the boat.From there is was decided to head towards the south passage and on the way raised a small marlin but unfortunately no hook up.All in all not much return for effort but then again we cannot have it all our way all the time.

Big
The one Jeff's holding up was the biggest,the smallest one not pictured was about an inch and a half over minimum size.
