The weather came good for good Friday so of course we headed out in search of new ground and some different species.  It was a bit rough heading out but it soon calmed down and the fish came on .

First drift resulted in a couple of freight trains that Sandy hooked but handed the rod over to me . Both of which I thaught were big trevs but turned out to be a couple of big chinaman.  Second drift resulted in a school mackeral and numerous small fish that all released well then I had a double of small grassies that got followed by a shark I estimated at about 12 feet, time to move on . Found a fair bit of ground to fish but mainly small ones until sandy hooked up again to another horse of a fish which ended with a 3rd chinaman.  Ended up over towards a spot we had fished before and managed a few nice grassies and then as Sandy had put her rod in the holder it doubled over with line screaming out. Without question I knew Sandy couldn't handle this one I grabbed the rod with the line peeling out and heading away from us I called it a shark but no , after a 10 minute fight in only 20 mtrs of water a big gold spot cod came to the surface, it went 830mm so we called it a day. The usual story , Sandy hooked them and I fought them so it was a tag team effort
