two rocks trip
hey hey
decided last night that a trip to 2rocks was on the cards due to the weather , so got a couple of mates together and decided to search for some likely spots.
the high tide seemed to coincide with the almanac bite time so we had hopes , it was just a matter of finding some ground.
left the harbour at 6 am , 2nd boat in the queue. nice
we headed straight out to direction bank , and started the search.
droppped on a few spots , me with jig and the others with plastics and bait.
not much action early and worryingly the wind seemed up.
decided to head out further and keep the search going.
ended up finding some nice ground in the 60's and it was dave with the bait who was first in with a nice 9 kilo dhu
other odds and sods but not noteworthy.
continued out and found some awesome looking ground where jarrad scored fish of the day on the trusty 10" mccarthy. a nice 18kg dhu which wasn't in a good state to be returned , and so joined the other in the esky.
dave then managed a good baldie , and a lovely queen snapper which may or may not have caused him to break a sweat.
queenie released but baldie came home
stayed on that spot for the rest of the time we had , and got a few red snappper and pinkie's. one red came home too. not pic worthy tho.
met back at the ramp by nice fisheries lady so all good there
all in all , a right nice day out
If I spent half as long fishing , as I do reading this bloody forum , I'd be twice the fisherman I am.

Great report mate some top
Great report mate some top fish there, i went out for a squid/herring fish with a mate yesterday at Mindarie and fisheries checked us too. Good to see them out and asking for licences/fish check. Asked them if mackies were still getting caught and said Monday week they saw every second boat with one too.
Forever learning with fishing

great catch there, fisheries
great catch there, fisheries were checking out at Woodies over Easter as well, good to see them about, all good for me, ended up having a chat with them and and they mentioned that a few weren't doing the right thing with their catches. it's not worth it for a few fish, I hope they get more than a slap on the hand.
All this working keeps getting in the way of fishing!
