Father and son trip

So after not fishing with my two older boys who live in Gero for about 2 years i arranged to meet them at a location between Perth and geraldton for the long weekend. We all arrived frisay night and had a few drinks then up early today. ESE was cranking so we didn't launch the tinny till about 7 and stayed in close till it dropped below 15 kts. Ended up a ball burster of a day. We kept some large skippy, big fox fish, 2 pinkies, a blackarse and an 80 cm dhuie. We released a few sambos and a couple undersize dhus too.
All from a 13 ft tinny
Love spending time with my boys, now to do it all again tomorrow

 

Abe's 53 cm skippy

My 82cm dhu

Foxfish and pinky

Father son trip installment number 2. I was awake by 4 this morning, wind was light easterly so woke the lads and headed off at about 5am. On the first spot 10 minutes later on his first drop and middle son is into his first dhu, 65 cm in 6 mts water. He then followed it up with a 52cm that we released.
Both boys were using occy and getting plenty of bites while i was casting an abrolhos tackle plastic on a big johns jig head ine the direction we were drifting and working back to boat. I had a brief battle with a sambo but that was the only hit until i came up tight on an 87cm dhuie
