Today off Scabs!
Hi guys ! Well waking up at 5am and hearing rain and thunder..i was quick to roll over and continue with my blanket show. Then after waking at 8am, i staggered out to the lounge room, to be greeted by the wife to be. She has the computer open on seabreeze telling me, the wind has dropped off, shes packed the boat, we're going fishing....whom am i to argue with her.
Got to the ramp at 0900 to find a three quarter full car park..and the sunday zig zag boat backing brigade in full swing. We get out the front of the Marina, to be welcomed by the flatest sea i have seen in a fair while. I could feel "The Wedding Fund" itching to be opened up to full throtle under my firm hand. So with out hesitation, i opened up me 30hp suzi and steamed down to our secret fishing grounds off Scarbs.
Once to our spot, i killed the engine and it was game on!
Well..well true to form once again, Claire drops her squid jig down and im sure landed on top of a frigging squids head, as she is hooked up before i have even got my line in the water. This has happened 3 times now, and its starting to wear a little thin. Is this arse..or just a good skipper???
Anyway after listening to her tell me how good she was, at 1100 the wind picked up...and the whiting come on the bite bigtime! I have never come across them feeding so aggressivley since fishing for them. After an hour we had bagged out on some big whiting....so it was back to the squid.
Claire once again called that she was on. So i grabbed the landing net..slowly carressed, her squid into the net. Handed her the net and continued to clean the 36 bloody whiting i had left. Next thing i hear is..awww shittt...i turn around and Claire has just copped a facial from mr squiddy. He did a great job, and i couldnt help but laugh..after she bagged the shit out of me about 6 months ago, when i copped a good inking!
We headed back to the ramp at 1500 with good feed of squid/ whiting in the esky and one slightly bruised ego!

Squid
Sure is mate! Got most of the squid in around 15m of water..none in shallow, think they were spooked with the flat conditions. Good to see the squid are coming on again, they have been quiet the last couple of months.

Voodoo magic?
Loved the pic of Claire inked, and so bloody jealous that you have a missus that wants to go fishing! I picked a lovely one, and she loves the outdoors, but she hates fishing. Anyone know of any voodoo magic that can change a woman who hates to even think of a fish with a hook in its mouth, to a "Claire"??

Just tell her
Just start going fishing every day. If the wind is up, hook the boat up and just head to your mates place for a few beers..Then just tell her if she wants to spend some time with you ..she will have to come fishing.
