Wednesday Report

Went for a fish with Tapout yesterday to one of the inclose spots as the wind was blowing pretty strong. We didn't have a hell of a lot of success, first fish of the day was a pink snapper that was a couple of centimeters undersize, but one of the fattest little buggers I've ever seen. We went through a heap of reefies and seargent bakers until I hooked into a little rat sambo which we tagged number 62496 and measured to be 44cm fork length. The next fish was a bigger rat sambo which we tagged number 62495, measured 58cm fork length and was released in good health. After Tapouts 7th Port Jackson in a row we decided to move to the otherside of the lump where fortunes changed.

I got two eels in a row followed by a scorpion cod and 2 reef bustoffs which saw an end to my arvo fishing. Tapout held in there for another 15 minutes and saw a school of 4-5 yellow tail kings about a meter long buzz the back of the boat. 5 minutes later he was into one of them on 6kg and it took about 30 seconds of it heading towards the horizon before it busted him off. Argh well, not a bad arvo to be on the water, would have been nice if the fish played ball thou. Guess thats fishing thou. :)

That will be one of the next trips out Jay. Have information that is pretty reliable that they aren't out there in numbers yet.

My old man had my camera and I only had my video camera so it wasn't worthwhile taking any footage, even though the bigger sambo made my little applause with 6kg absolutely smoke. Also just wanted to get the sambo's back in the water as soon as possible without too much distress.

Heading out of two rocks with Gully tomorrow, conditions not looking to special at this stage, but will see what we can muster up. :)

Where you thinking of going from tomorrow Salmo. We are very unsure, if the conditions are good may make the trek up to two rocks, but the way the forecasts looking we may just try and get some squid from little island and some sandies. Just so hard to tell. Take it you went out this morning, certainly looked the goods when I went past the coast, was annoyed that I couldn't go, but the overall outcome was good. :)

better than workin hey still! I was hoping to get out sunday but weather looks a tad on the average side, oh well.

Heres my report, plenty of just size bream in the river down stream and a few choppers, no stonkers but still fun on 4lb.
