Sound Gummys

Decided to chuck the boat in at Point Peron yesterday afternoon for the first time in about 12 months to hit the sound and see if I could tempt a few snapper.

Could not manage anything of significant size with only a few small fish around the 30cm mark.

Fortunately, did not go home empty handed managing to land a couple of gummy sharks in the hour after sun down.

Will definitely start to hit the sound more now coming in to winter to chase snapper. It is an extremely relaxing place to fish on a nice night!

Anybody been doing well on the pinks in the sound yet?

 Great catch mate, love gummy shark. If you want to make them taste better try trunking them ie head , fins and guts all taken off. Doesnt make for a good piccie but taste heaps better. Well done.

 Were they a by-catch on a patinoster rig trying for snapper or did you try a different set up. I've only caught one before was a flook on snapper rig.

They both came on a whole squid on snelled hooks with a very small running sinker. Just letting the baits sit out the back of the boat in the burley trail.
