South Coast ban beaters and Quobba Trip from a few weeks back
Starting at 2 .30 in the morning I headed south in the tinny with the old man to get away from this pesky demersal ban.
We arrived at 6 in the morning to head out through a dodgy inlet mouth and much larger than anticipated swells for the 14 foot tinny
Ended up having a ball of a day catching 9 Demersals and a leatherjacket!
There was also plenty of big SBT's about as well which we were going to chase when we bagged out but unfortunalty the weather turned before we could do that.
A 12 KG dhu, 5 Queenies (biggest around 85cm), 2 Breaksea and a pinky. I also finally got to christen the new saltiga as well.
Was a great day with the old man and was not bad for 2 and a half hours fishing !
Also a while ago I got the chance to fish Quobba again. The fishing was slow but I did manage to get a few Cod and the Highlight was 2 12KG Cobia on lures !
Oh its ON!

Wow great catch, doesnt look like you had to go out far to catch Dhu's! Is it like this for most of the southern regions?

Depends where you are. Deep
Depends where you are. Deep water is never far away. But the further south you get the less dhus u tend to get I believe
Oh its ON!
