Two Rocks 23/4/2011
Hey guys. we had a late morning start yesterday at 11am out of two rocks. the swell was kickin it and it made for some fun on the way out. glad we had travelcalm or i woulda been burleying for the whole day. anyway, i started off with plastics - 7inch Slams. got some good smacks but no hookups. Rob then switched to bait and soon had a sgt. baker on board. put him into the tank for bait if we ran out. i then switched to bait, and that drift managed a just undersized dhuie and a tiny blackass. next drift, rob managed to pull up a stonka blackarse, which went straight into the esky. i then managed a smaller blackarse, but he also went into the esky. things went a little quiet so we set up a redrift, and just as crossed the mark, rob was on again. this time, a nice sized baldie. next drop, he had another baldie on board. in the meantime, i managed to pull about about 3 tiny blackarse, one scorpionfish (or spiky,poisonous thing) and a large norwester. in the next 3 hours, we had little luck. we finally managed to hit a good patch, which resulted in rob and i hooked up. my fish was a nice baldie; robs was a very nice queenie. the next fish up, after a long fight, had us calling a big dhuie, arose a big blackarse. we already had 2 on board, so we released the guy with the release weight. felt good releasing it.
final catch was:
8 baldies, 2 kept
5 blackarse, 2 kept
an undersized dhuie
Queen snapper
2 norwesters
3 scorps
two wrasse
got into the marina at 8pm to start the trek back home. we stayed out longer than we expected, because the conditions were absolutely mint. didnt take long at all to get back in. we headed out this morning aswell, hoping to replicate the efforts. the day was pretty much over before it started. we got 2kms out and turns around because it was way too rough. the top half of our bodies were absolutely soaked. hoping monday stays good, hoping to get out again. i have some pics of the fish at home, but i will put up the actual pics of the fish when i get them tomorrow.
cheers guys.
