hi all this is my first post here on fish wrecked,

My partner has a hut in her family down in windy harbour, They all head there during christmas time, so we dont really get a chance to stay there much,

we wanted to go along when it wasn't so crowded, and the hut remains empty over easter.

So we headed down for a relaxing weekend, with no phone range, where no body could bother us, also with a bit of fishing.

I invited my dad, step-mum, sisters and my brother along with his partner, 

turned out to be a great weekend. 

caught a few herring at salmon beach, on the first two nights, awaiting the arrival of the salmon. 

We decided to get up early sunday morning, get there before the croud, and hopefully strike something good.

after about half an hour of fishing, my brother caught the first salmon of the day, about 65cm, then not too long after he caught a whopping 93cm, which snapped his old hand me down rod,

he headed back to the hut in the windy harbour settlement, to grab another rod, and got my old man to come down, i stayed back to fish, with no luck :(

and now there was three of us, my old man caught his first. i was stil yet to catch one. with three of us fishing, the minimal bait we had was running out, so we sent the girls to go get more, the bait ran out before i could land a salmon. Luckily a FRESH mullie beached itself, i put it straight on, and as soon as it hit the water i was on,

and brought in a 60cm salmon! a first for myself!

We kept fishing, til about 10am, watching the salmon run, you could see them in the waves as they crashed, was an awesome sight!

my Biggest for the day was just under 85cm

my brother had the win with his 93cm

here are a couple of pics
