Exxy Experience
Submitted by deepwater on Tue, 2010-04-27 11:29
Hi all i have lived here for a few years and the family has come up for 2 weeks.
they got here saturday arvo and out we went. in 3 hours we managed to raise 4 billies, lost 1 marlin and landed 1 sail.
day 2 we got a few goldies out in 150m and raised 1 billy and in all got 10 stripe tuna all reliest.
day 3 up to the islands we got 4 snapper and a 7m whale shark that swam around the boat for about 40mins.
so far they are loving exxy and booking for next year already. today is a lay day out in the gulf squidding.
sorry no pics just yet, getting them soon.

nice mate
Nice work mate, we went and camped down the bottom of the gulf and had niiice conditions, had a school of a few thousand trevally sit under the boat at one stage and got some sick video of them trying to chase surface lures. Also speared a goood trout that the flopper didn't stick in and dropped a monster queenie off the sand spit (was spewn). All in all a good weekend, spewing about being at work coz it looks magic out there once again. :(
