Two rocks Sat 26th

Headed out nice and early, getting to Two rocks ramp just before 7am. Ramp was quite busy with about 15 other boats heading out at the same time.

Luckily we were in a 25Ft Blackwatch centre console with twin 200's on the back, so cruising out at 40 knots makes for a short trip!

Headed To Direction bank, and fished in the 35m range

After 5 minutes, First Baldie and First 5KG dhu onboard!!

Most pics with a guy i work with landing his Dhuies.

Total day managed 7 Dhuies, 1 under size, and 3 Baldies, 1 being a monster!!!

Dhu's, 1 @ 10.5 Kgs, 2 @ 7.5 kgs and 3 at 5.5 kgs

Biggest Baldie went 5.5 kgs!!!!! Massive!

Massive Baldie!!

By Far the Best Metro (Well i call it metro) fishing ive done so far. Only 2 Rass landed and thats it, nothing else, all in 5 hours of fishing!

Had whales jumping around pods of dolphins coming through and also got a wee too close to a tanker and he showed his displeasure by honking pretty dam loud!

I can say i will be going back to Two rocks again :):)

PS: can you see the jig that caught quite a few Dhuies :) its a plastic squid about 3 inches long!

I tried the Okta Jig, but no even a touch!

Cheers

Looks like you copped a bit too much flash, pity, would have been great pics.  Not that they aren't, but sure you know what I mean.  Looks like lots of you Perthies had a good Saturday out on the water.  Congrats! ;)

Yeah Adam, new camera and couldnt figure out how to turn the Flash off until i got to shore.

Thanks Ryan, was good to get a feed of fresh fish.. Especially of that quality. And between 5 of us, was just the right amount for us all to take a feed or 2 home.

Can i say.... Baldie fillets is the S**T. As good as KG Whiting!!!
