Sat - First trip out on the new boat

So with the wife’s blessing (after I failed to get out Friday.....) a few mates and I headed out from Point Peron to 5 photon bank hoping to land a decent fish on my new boat. We headed out around 2pm and on the first drop started catching big Skippy like they were blow fish, after catching and releasing about 50 of them we decided to move spots.

After a slow start at the next spot we started to get a few bites as the tide changed. My mate jimmy pulled up a nice 50cm KG.

I then started to get smashed, pulled up a under size Dhu a large cuttle fish and a port Jackson shark (1.5mtrs) on the same pull and heap of wrasse

The next drop I finally pulled a nice 70cm Dhu so the boat landed its first decent fish (The fishing gods where finally being nice to me)...all in all a fantastic first trip out in the new tub

looking forward to the next bit of nice weather....:)

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.
