We sat from

4 till 10, seen 2 landed around five, same boat lost 2, then a couple old blokes in an orange fiba glass landed a couple, i recon they droped 3 with 2 of them a double hook up. Very frustrating how these 2 boats landed fish and many others very close were getting nothing. we were 10/15 meters away but the boats within five meters were still getting no hits, funny how it works!

Seen a few arguments and bit lip by a few boats, counted 33 at one stage, but in all the wind dropped off and it was a nice night on the water with the fish landed looking good in size. Will be trying my luck at a few of the other spots in the sound before fishing there again.

 Next time out DON'T try the popular spots. 

Put the time into finding something, anything that may hold fish.

Get a few spots then next time out check what's on them. 

Dont expect fish to always be there and keep looking.
