 Nice one mate. Plenty about at the moment. What length/weight were they? Look to be decent fish, well done.

Seriously mate every one of your posts last couple days is asking for spots. Get out there and find the fish yourself it's much more satisfying

yeh fair post beau , I agree to many people on here hunting for exact spots. it is hard and long sometimes but when you do find decent fish its so satisfying. great pink snapper mate specially from the ski. hope you have a decent couple of feeds of them.

 Thanks for the replys.

Yes had some great snapper steaks last night.

It became a family dinner last night,with a few beers and wine and laughs.

Here's a pic of the frame/carcass just starting to cook on the weber,the taste was sensational.

good work

Sat, 2013-05-04 08:31

Great to see nothing wasted. So many people ditch the wings and frame but if you don't mind a pick I think its the best parts. hmmmm baldy cheek.
Launched from two rocks a while back and there were two 8 - 10kg dhuies at the bottom under the jetty with just the fillets taken. Looked very fresh and deckie was so close to going for a swim for them. What a waste:(
