KG sesh, short-n-sweet!
With a nice day forecaster for yesterday morning i took the oportunity to get amoungst it. The weather was looking good for the morning but not so for the arvo so i decided to pass up on the deepwater stuff and get into some local KG's!
That decided, i though a gentlemans start (late morning) was in order and reckon a few hours on the water should make for a nice morning sesh. Dan came along for a fish and was keen to get into a few big KG's as he hasnt targetted them yet. I said to him on the way out they can be fickle sometimes and we may have to try many spots & do many drifts. On arival the winds were light which is a big help and on dropping our rigs to the bottom the fish were hungy straight away!
We did 6 drifts with 8 plump KG's coming aboard with skinned ocky doing the job just nicely. With eight fish in the ice box and the hint of the Southerly wind changed we agreed thats more than enough for a feed and lets head in. On the way in i couldnt help myself but give Mewstones reef a quick go for tailor or salmon on popper. After a few bloops i was on, i landed & released a descent tailor and after a few more cast of no takers we headed in.
The short sesh was great and good to catch up again Dan.....a few pic's;

Always
worth a few bloop bloops at the stones ryano.
Nice kg's mate.
Aussie boof - if your heading west along south street, cross over the lights
at the corner of stock rd / south street get into the right lane. When you get to the bottom of the hill chuck a right into stockdale quick left into the driveway
