Good day out
Submitted by Faulkner Family on Sun, 2019-01-06 19:04
After being bricked a few times last trip out we loaded up with some heavier gear. Wich cwrtainly didnt go astray.
First fish on board was a nice dhuie at 70cm aprox 7 1/2 kg
Second on by our sin brenden went 90 cm at around the 12kg mark and a new pb for him . He was stoked to land this one after being bricked a few times last trip out.
Then Sandys turn with a nice gummy comming up .
With a few other small models amongst them that were released well . Also managed 3 tuna and a kg to top off the day.

Got the towing the lures. And yeah the scatter real quick. Get within 50 mtrs and there gone. We got around the front of them and slowed down a bit for them to come to the lures . Had tgem about 50 mtrs behind the boat.
