The fish gave me a flogging
The fish gave me a flogging today, spent 4hrs casting at free jumping macks from the ski, hooked 5 landed 0. At one stage I had 30 sharkies and a couple big Spaniards 5m under the ski! One day I might actually land one hahaha

Fairly light, 10lb and 20lb
Fairly light, 10lb and 20lb haha. Only got busted off once, I struck a bit too hard and the drag was too tight, ping! The others spat the hooks and the one I had at the ski I stupidly tried to net but the fish was too big and didn't fit, the hooks on the lure got stuck to the net and the fish got off, shattered. I just checked the footage from the gopros turns out I wasn't filming when I got that one to the ski.
I really did have a shocker of a day.
They were feeding on tiny baitfish, like 1inch long

2 rocks
Headed out from 2 rocks today. Awesome conditions.
was a very slow start to the day without a decent bite until about 930 but then it changed around.
ended up with a baldy and two dhuies around the 7kg mark each- not huge but nice for a few good meals.
also released another three size dhuies- so have had worse days!
cheers,
oz
