Great day out on the water

Headed out yesterday morning to try and find new ground South side of Rotto and some how managed to deliver.

The boats tally for the day was:

3 x sized Dhuis (and a bunch that weren't)

1 x Snapper (51cm)

1 x horse of a Baldie (62cm, 12lb on the Bogas)

1 x Black Ass

1 x Sambo

3 x Skippy

1000 x Buff Bream (well I think that's what they were)

1 x red snapper

It's not a fashion contest on the water...

... most fish and least sunburnt wins!

You can buy these face scarfs at tackle shops for $25 or you can steel one from your missus like I did. She bought about 5 for her hair from Target for 50 cents each. They stop the sun and you can even drink your beer through them

I agree

Sun, 2011-09-25 12:47

whatever you can do from being subjected to the elements  is being smart  as for me i just went and got me a new pair of waders made from neoprene with all the bells and whistles to keep me warm when i am standing nuts deep in water fishing

so props to ya bud for  thinking ahead of the game

 Nice haul, and I agree, I love wearing mine out while on the ski, although, in black its a little more discreet than yours, and it makes me feel bad-ass, ninja style!

Sun, 2011-09-25 20:22

I couldn't see images when I read the post and a few down it read that the 3 crap fish were kept, after the original post stating 3xdhus and heaps undersize.

 

Not to have a go but to check my knowledge for if I ever land any fish as good as those.

 

That baldy looks awesome.

Smiley face winking...

Mon, 2011-09-26 10:20

... I put a smiley face winking at the end of that sentence emplying sarcasm. I was really saying that I kept the good eating fish and the deckies had the crap fish.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

As I said, the images were not on my computer so wink or no wink when I read that todays capture was 3X dhus and later in the post it reads that the 3 best fish were kept I assumed it was 3 x dhus.

 

Yes my bad, even worse my computers bad for not showing the images.

 

Sorry for checking guidelines as I am not a veteran fisher.

Bag Limit

Mon, 2011-09-26 19:48

Does anyone even know the demersal bag limit???????? im seriously confused, i thought it was 2 demersals per boat only one dhuie allowed....

Could someone please tell me whats going on  cos they always change the damn laws and i reckon if they catch you with over the limit you cant plead ignorance.

 Cheers

OK, so just to repeat

Mon, 2011-09-26 19:59

it's 2 High risk fish per person of which only 1 can be a Dhufish, with a special boat limit of 2 Dhuies per boat.
