Last D Bash

Woke up at 6am with a smile knowing today was going to be perfect and that was quickly dashed to see a 10kn NW coming around Cape Naturaliste.

Punched out to the 4 Mile and did a few drifts for a massive scorpion fish and decided that the wind was going to hold at 10kn with small gusts so punched out to yesterday's spot about a further 5 miles out.

Did a good 20 drifts over various lumps that produced yesterday and couldn't even get a bite today except for a tiny dhu and the changing winds were playing havoc with my drift lines. Kept driving over a small 3-4m high lump and decided I'd give that a drift then head home and pulled out a 53cm dhu. Happy days!

Packed up and shot in stopping for another whale show and with shit weather coming I can now really concentrate on the local licenced establishments.

The dream's over mate. Currently pissing down hard with a 28kn NW and worsening. Time to drive the capes and do some weather watching and plan where the pints will be sunk.
