Tuesdays fish
Submitted by Sea goat on Thu, 2022-04-21 18:44
Snuck out on Tuesday for a quick fish. Lot of haze in the morning which made for sn epic sunrise. Conditions were ok, but seemed to be a tipping current. Struggled to hold ground even with the sea anchor out and a lot of weight! Fisher in the 40s for a baldy at 49cm, and a breaksea at 38. Nothing special but still a bag and counted myself lucky to even manage that! Was pretty hard work dealing with the sea anchor and reeling those weights from deep got a bit tiresome, but still a relaxing day! I can feel that big dhu getting closer!!!

If you're getting Baldies and Black arse then you're certainly in the right area for a Banger.
