We got up at not quite "stupid "oClock" and commenced the battle of the boat ramp, 12 boats lined up ahead of us to launch.
We had much the same further out. Longlines deployed and fished for couple hours. Caught 3 gurnard on the rods, then 3 baracoutta then I got 5ft shark (Greyboy) on a strayline, which I could have kept cause we like eating shark but he wasnt really doing any harm so we let him go with a small piece of new jewelery in his lip.
Picked up long lines and managed 10 or so small gurnard, 30cms or so (all went back too small for decent fillet) and a couple of chinamen, second line had a tangle of @stingray proportions weights dragged together and hooks all in a ball of poo, cuplret was a 40lb kingfish which is going in the smoker shortly.
Fishing was really hard but there were schools of krill everywhere so thick you could walk on them, barrcouta were full to bursting with them same for the 3 gurnard we kept and also the kingfish. I wonder if all the fish in the bay were just too full to bite ??
Took 1 hour queuing at the ramp to get boat on trailer, madness everywhere witness frayed tempers and such, very entertaining
