PB double
Submitted by teto on Sun, 2010-07-25 18:43
Went out a couple of weeks ago to test out the wifes new rod & reel on a mates boat. We left Joondalup about six & got to Two Rocks about twelve. After near loosing a wheel on the boat trailer due to loose wheel nuts on his new rims he had just fitted, we had to get a new hub as it was completely flogged out. So, by time we did the the repairs it was 11:40 & we looked at each other and said f@!k it, it can't get any worse.
We headed out to few spots with little success & then we went to a spot that he had not fished for some time & rest is history, got these two nice dhuies one 11kgs & 12kgs.
Considering the day it turned out to be a good one.

Tough day
Sounds like you had a real tough day, wheelnuts, rough conditions and two big fish trying to pull you over the side.
Good one.

Good Dhues
Fortune favours the brave. I'm sure many people would have given up after that start to the day. Rewarded by the fishing gods for your persistance.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

Nice catch mate
Did you get them on that cali Squid?
oh and did the guy packing on the axel grease get a bite?
Just trying to see if theres anything of foreign smells putting fish off the bite!
The skipper i usually go out with is trying to justify why the deckies catch fish and he doesnt.
His theory is that when he fuels the boat up in the morning the oil from the fuel he gets on his hands is contaminating the bait and is the reason why he sux at fishing
.
Jeez im glad hes totally computer illiterate and will never read this
.
Other wise id be stuck on the Jetty....

Mate what a great pair of Dhuies
Certainly made up for what was looking to be a disaster of a day.
