Thanks @stingray. Yeah. Mainly a shakedown for the new boat. Mate is an experienced skipper so had faith in his judgement.
Don't worry. The bait would have been deployed if the opportunity presented itself. The spot we were heading for was in over 200m and the wind was just too much to set up a drift. As it was, I only lost one lure all day (to the bottom) and we didn't come across a single barracouta??? Also saw shoals of squat lobster off Motuara island. Not sure why there aren't a heap of fish eating the fuck out of them.
Good to see Kells still slaying the fish. If I were her I'm not sure if I would trust your knots though![]()
