Todays catch

Went for a fish today and what a day it was. Me and two mates decided TwoRocks was on the cards and that we would be there for a 0530 start. When we got there the car park was already full of trailers and there was a cue for the ramp which did the full circle of the carpark and went around the corner to the main road. we were lucky we got there when we did and were in the water within 30mins of arrival. So after the peek hour session we decided to venture around the 40 mark for some new territory whilst doing some fine tuning to the new Broardband sounder unit. We found some nice lump and proceeded to drop a line in. Bang on. One of the fellas was straight onto a 12kg Duhie followed by the other fella and myself pulling up 2 good size Baldies. We had established a drift line with 4 big lumps in it and continued with it. After 3 passes we had pulled 6 Duhie 2 release ranging between 7 and 12 kg and 3 Baldies between 2 and 4 kg. We had our limit by 2 pm and were out of the water by 4pm then cruised home. Over all it was a top day for all involved. How did everyone else go??

Cheers

That would definately make the carpark hassles worthwhile.

I got there(2 Rocks) at 6,

I got there(2 Rocks) at 6, we were up next the main road, fortunatly someone was thoughtfull enough to organize us and sent us through to the outside lane as I have got the a drive on drive off trailer. Makes life so much easyer why does no one else modify there trailer the same way our Banana boat trailers are made?. I must piss people off taking 2 minuites to get a 6.7 meter on from when the trailer gets wet. so easy.

We pulled a 65cm KG and a 55cm Dhu from the 40meter mark and found a nice patch in 27meters & got a 10kg and a 54cm Dhu.

The Furuno 585 is getting easyer to use every trip I am learning to distinguish what is what alot more easyer now.

top day on the water, was going today but seems the wind is up a bit.

 

Live to fish

Yes I think Two Rocks is on

Mon, 2009-01-12 16:41

Yes I think Two Rocks is on its way out as the ground is coping a hiding,i guess 120 boats out yesterday ,i would think 100 dhuies plus would have come from two rocks alone then there is all the other ramps on the coast, and people still say that tthe dhuies arn't in danger .

Good to hear everyone bought

Mon, 2009-01-12 21:26

Good to hear everyone bought a feed home also.The sounder upgrade appears to be a good thing so far but like most things like that you need to spend the time on setting it up properly to get the full benifit from it. So far I have no complaints. I actually got a mate to take the helm and concentrated on getting the sounder to work well whilst on the move. The way I figured is that if I could get a good graph whilst on the move then it would have to be a better graph when stationary. Seems to have worked.

cheers
