Few pink fish

 With the water out off Mandurah being a bit rough for my tub this week, I decided to have a look around a spot I'd fished in the evening before in the Sound. 

My mate was bright and early and we were launching the boat by 4:15am got out to the spot by 4:45 and started getting a few mulie cubes over the side. 

Once anchored and had the burly running I dropped a 6" nuclear chicken grub on a 5/O 1/2 oz jig head down and left that one in the rod holder with the lure sitting about 1-2m off bottom. On a second rod I was casting and retrieving a 7" nuclear chicken jerk shad with a 5/O 3/8 oz jig head. My mate was fishing a drift bait rig with mulies on one rod and a "7 nuclear chicken jerk shad on the other. 

Was quiet for the first hour while the burly trail did it's thing then as soon as the sky started be comeing lighter it was like some one flicked a switch. First and biggest fish  (84cm) went to my mate on the jerk shad that he had just sitting in the rod holder while he was mucking around rebaiting his drift bait rig again. Then no sooner had his fish hit the deck my grub also just sitting in the holder was on. While I was pulling that one in my mate hooked up n lost a fish on his drift bait rig, I landed my fish and dropped the grub back down it barly made it half way back to bottom and I was on again landing my secon fish for the day, bout 5 mins latter my mate got another fish on his jerk shad after casting out into the burly trail, he hooked up on the drop also.

After 20 minutes of hot action it was over as suddenly as it began. While the bait did get a couple of hits all fish landed were on plastics, my mate said he might give the bait a miss next time!
