great days fishing
Got to the ramp at about 8:15 but had a small wait to launch. Finally reversed down the ramp but then the damn winch wouldn't release so back up to work on it.
Finally got it freed at about 9 and off we went to a spot we have about 17nm out. First lines down just after 10 and the fish were biting straight away with a few smaller grassies coming up. So we looked around and with longer drifts than normal we found the bigger models and a nice red for Sandy. had 8 fish on board threw several mid size grassies back hoping to get another red or 2 but to no avail . Ended up bagging out with a couple more big grassies and lines were up a bit after 12 . With a variation from high to low tide of 7 mtrs and a big moon must have sent the fish into a feeding frenzy. Great day and now to enjoy several nice feeds after not getting out for a couple of months due to wind and work

Certainly was a nice catch .
Certainly was a nice catch . Had run out of fish in the freezer . Plenty of whales out there as well. Seen a mother and calf went to get a better look and couldn't believe the calf was mainly white

Makes a good day even better
Makes a good day even better Russ! We saw a calf in Broome a couple of years ago that was almost all white. Pretty cool.
