Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

The crazy thing is , there were two more bigger in the crack took the small one and one big bugger I could reach. Have seen easily over 100 crays the past three days...a good number undersize which is fantsitic for the area and some monsters that I'm not keen on pushing for ...the result of prospecting and having the pleasure of diving with my lad!

Short story...kings at the pass nothing large took one at 80 cm to eat! Was full of small squid! We have hit most of our known holes so went hunting ...blew 4 tanks on turf that look the part but was empty or just rolled into shingle ...caught the odd cray here and there ...then yesterday hit a couple of spots that I will milk for years to come...one is a rock the size of a caravan split right across with viewing windows all over it ...you could see the crays big medium small but not a chance of reaching them 30 + crays I counted ...then at one side and one end were holes that held the outsiders which we fished ...we didn't slaughter them either taking just the three two from one end and one from the side.

Went in search of the "prick" a hole/rock you either hit and get a couple off or miss and get nothing..missed got nothing ..up after 10 mins the boat man says he's marked a rock whilst following us looked good. Down on it to diver heaven huge huge blue Moki 20 lb + swimming mirrors , real kelp not just short seaweed , holes and cracks everywhere then the cave of aldin ...small crays , takers , and I would quietly say 4 - 5 crays from 6- who knows lb , the one I lucked on to went 10 and there were more than one a third bigger than him. A simply amazing dive with my son! Left us both, grinning and sharing a moment that I will hold dear for the rest of my days.

Bloody hell, you have to be more than happy with that. I enjoy having a play in areas that you normally motor straight passed.
