Took my son and a couple of his mates up around Hillarys for a bit of a fish. Looking for new snapper spots, but no big runs. We did get into the herring again, one after another and we easily could have doubled the amount, there were hundreds around. I didn't need any so they were divided amoungst sons mates who don't get fish very often. I still had to clean them though.
