Productive Day out on Monday
Went out on Monday with my mate Matt (FW member).
Left the ramp at around 7:45 and had a very rough trip out to the 3 mile, wondering if the forecasted wind drop was ever going to happen.
Anchored up on top of the reef, got 3 blackarse (one of which was legal - 35cm) and a few wrasse but nothing more.
After around an hour the anchor had slipped and the spot gone dead so we moved a few hundred metres to the south and dropped the pick once again.
We sight fished a couple of skippy, hooking quite a few but only landing 2 (one to me on the pen rod - great fun )
And a couple of sambos on live wrasse which measured 86 and ~105 cm.
Not long after a noah of around 2.5m turned up and circled the boat for a good 30 mins or so. Think it was a bronzie but not 100%
Hooked what was called for a pink, saw colour, only for it to spit the hooks
Finished off with a quick 20 min C&R tailor sesh in sh*thouse conditions, hooking 2, landing 1
All in all not a bad day, had sambo curry and fish cakes for dinner, didn't taste too bad, will definitely give them ago again should the opportunity present itself
Cheers

Sambos on livies
Good work boys!
I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
