Weekends bottom bashing
Submitted by STEVE231 on Sun, 2010-05-16 14:37
Wondering how everybody's metro fishing went over the weekend as we've had two great days for boating.
I went out yesterday and struggled earlier on, we only managed our first keeper just after lunchtime, and from then on the fish were a little more co-operative, always a concern for the skipper when lunchtime comes around with no runs on the scoreboard.

If I spent half as long fishing , as I do reading this bloody forum , I'd be twice the fisherman I am.

Sat fishing
Graham, the dhu is only about 6kg, we released a smaller, but legal one about two hours prior, in anticipation of catching a larger one, picked that one up on the last drift... lucky!!

Went out really early
Saturday around 2:30 and fished the 5fb in around 15 metres. The sounder was lit up with some big fish. Froze our asses off while my mate had fun with Port Jacksons. Did catch a 55cm banded sweep and a 42 cm foxfish. Had to come back in early.
Wish I had just slept in and went out deep again...bloody cold that time of the morning.
Glad to see everyone get a feed..beautiful out there this time of year when only a few of us head out.

nice catch there. that last
nice catch there. that last one looks a bit like a pig fish, same family as fox fish . in the end you ended with a nice feed of fresh fish and a mixed bag
RUSS and SANDY. A family that fishes together stays together
