After last weekends trout fishing and a few days holed up due to all the rain, it was time to hit the saltwater.
Ziggy the dog and I ventured out onto the mudflats to target the incoming tide to fish the channel edges. With water the colour of mud a bit of rain and a strong NE blowing the tide on the turn, it wasnt long before I had a small Skippy and Jack Mack on the beach been cut into long strips for fresh bait.
Baitcaster mode engaged and a few tentative runs, who doesnt love the sound of a bait runner peeling off, soon enough this Snapper came home for dinner. Had another couple of strong runs with one solid hookup only to drop the snapper half way in. This one was enough for dinner and it was home to cook up Fried spuds and Baked Snapper. Good way to spend an afternoon and the dog had fun chasing seagulls and been on bait chasing duty getting covered in mud.
The snapper was soon baked on the webber baby Q stuffed with onions, red peppers, chili, ginger and the most important ingredient butter......
Cheers FBD
