Tradewind and I headed out early to see if we could get him a good dhuie, we initially went exploring an area not tried before having passed over a huge fish aggregation in 43 metres, first drop yielded a flathead, hmmm, interesting, then things went horribly wrong as we passed over that aggregation, three rods with total bite offs, rerig and try again, same result.......... It was a massive aggregation all right but of N W blowies, grrrrrrr.

Whip the sea anchor in and head North for a mile, hmmm, more fish, first drop, double headers of dhuies but all were just under size, all returned well with and without release weight.  Drift again, good black bum, more undersized dhuies, and sothe day went on, no current whatever and fish feeding well, I got a 66 cm dhuie, good K G W on skinned occy and Tradewind got a horse of a baldie.

We thought he had finally cracked onto a good dhuie on the final drift as the wind dropped off to nothing but up came a bloody ray and another baldie to get him to the limit

Great day on the water, back at between 23 and 27 knots on glossing off conditions

Thanks mate for the company !
