My Two Rocks Report

today me,my dad and a mate went out from two rocks. We got to the boat ramp at 5:45 and launch straight away as their was no boats in the line. We headed out towards direction bank to find some new ground. We finally got to the late 30's and slowed down to try and find a couple of fish or some new ground eventually we found a nice patch of fish and set up for a drift. On the first drift we were getting de-baited fairly quickly by what we eventually found out were sargent bakers ,skippy and the obvious wrasse. We then moved a bit further south to find more ground, we found a nice patch of fish on a little lump. On the first drift we got a nice dhuie around the 8.5kg mark and 80cm long. We stayed around this for a couple more hours to land 3 nice baldchin grouper, a morwong which was released and also a Malabar cod which was caught on a jig and was also released. we had a little more excitement on our last drift when our floating mulie screamed but failed to set the hook. overall we had a great day on the water hopefully we can get out again soon. cheers Boyd.

Nice one mate, good result. Excellent result about no queue at the ramp! Any pics of that malabar?

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.

I reckon it is a wirrah by the looks of it. Made the mistake of keeping it, texture is a like a rubber boot!
