A bit late I know but was invited out on a mates ex cray boat to try and get an easy feed of skippy and kingis. Being doing ok of late mid week when the weather has been ok, which has been pretty much every Tuesday or Wednesday since Christmas.
The day before Oz day was great, plenty of skippy to 45cm and got onto a school of small kingi to ~65 cm. Those little buggers go hard in shallow water on the 4-8kg gear.
So we were thinking Thursday was going to be a cake walk and Tim who hadn’t been out in an age would be able to get a feed and have some fun. Best move was not taking the trailer boat to hillaries. Arrived at 7.45 to boats /cars backed up to the second roundabout on Hepburn Ave. Ive never seen it like that. Poor buggars…
Anyway we tootled out to a spot of Scarbs in 10m or so. Stunning day, burleyed up, but the bloody skippy decided to take the day off. Caught a couple eventually and a good kingi at 85cm on a drifting mullie, it played very nicely in the shallow for some reason which is the only reason I landed it on the 4-8kg. Hooked another and …well it just bricked me. Cracking good fun though.
Moved around a bit but stayed quiet for the rest of the morning. Unfortunately, the skipper lucked out, but took the fish home, so hopefully fed the clan and kept SWMBO happy.
A couple of shots of some Amberjacks (?) as well I think from the day before and a nice wee SBT from last week.
