Decided to head out to the FFB late this afternoon, thought I might do a sunset / evening session and hopefully get onto some pinks and skippy.

Started by anchoring in 9-10m of water and got the burley flowing straight away.  It didn't take long for some good sized herring to come in so we quickly flicked out some light lines and pulled in a bit of fresh bait (now tea for tomorrow night because we had a few left over!).  They went off the bite pretty quickly so we dropped some bigger baits down and began to settle in.

About 1/2 hour later Jamin's rod went off and after a short fight he brought up his ever first Port Jackson (he doesn't fish much ). 

Shortly after that he was on again but this one was what we came for, except it wasn't size - a 400mm pinkie.

We stayed there for another hour and a half with an intermitant burley stream going and in that time I managed to pull in the largest, and most boring fighting, PJ that I've ever caught. As well as that was a 600mm pink, a 450mm pink, two smoking runs that we didn't manage to set the hooks on,another PJ and got bitten off as well.  All in all there was plenty of entertainment anyway.

We decided to go a bit deeper and did a few drifts this time but there wasn't anything going on so we decided to head in.  We were coming through the entrance between Carnac and Garden Islands when I noticed a boat about 250m away flashing us with their torch so went over there to see what was going on. Ended up towing some poor dude and his (approx) 10 and 13yo daughters in whose motor wouldn't start. He'd called out Sea Rescue but by the time they arrived we had them connected up and had been towing them for 10 mins, after a brief chat we told them we'd take them back to the Woodies ramp.

All in all it was quite an eventful night. Very nice out there on the water and not too cold either.
