Geographe Bay - Saturday 25/9

Sorry folks - no photos as i either left the camera on the boat trailer at the ramp or it is somewhere under the floor. Despite this, a great day on the bay. Nothing spectacular - dropped the only KG at the side of the boat, the end guide on an Ebay rod corroded off with a big whiting on the line and i nearly mowed my slow moving brother down as i left the ramp. Perfect weather but very few squid - 4 only but one as big as a bucket to make it enough for a meal. The best thing was 16 sand whiting that on average were close to or over 300mm and fat as a politicians wallet - fed 4 people for breakfast this morning and the brother took enough home for a good feed for another 4. To top the day off, about 10am a whale heading south passed us out to sea -superb sight. It is days like this when i realise why i live here in the SW.
