Fishing Sunday with Simo

Fill a deckie spot with Simo to head out wide...really wide, the Derwent. Bumped into TC and Makomagic. Pretty slow out there but there is fish sighted on the sounder so persisted abit longer than them and was rewarded with 2 pinkies, a red snapper and a Oceanic White Tip shark. After that we went everyone for not much else. I jigged up a nannygai, undersize and upon retrieving my jig so we could move to another spot. Hooked up to something that felt like a skippy before it took off like a rocket. A couple of mins later, a fat stripey was added to the catch. Geez its was beautiful out there today, we stayed out to almost sun down looking for more fish. Beats working anyday, unless you have a job like mine =)

Some Surecatch thing that I had success on with another colour on other fish before. This fish was hooked half way up while just retrieving the jig.
