Moved to 35m. SW wasn't awesome out there however the fishing improved but it started with grey boys and sea monsters .

Then a couple of nice snaps 12 and 9 pd. Heaps of cod we ended up with our limit on those + a couple of gurnard. Back in at 1pm.

I looked at tascam this arvo at about 3 and there was only 1knt out there so would have been flat this arvo. Reckon we might get wet in the morning tho.

Never saw a kahawai.

Well done to your young fella with his new pb. Plenty of adults would be happy with that fish.

Yea i cant remember ever getting that many out there b4 but they make for a bloody tasty dinner.

We got heaps of undersize ones too but reckon only 1/2 them probably make it back to the bottom.

They have to get past all those undersize kingis !!!

Should make the Kingies big and fat.

Well the boy has something to talk about in the playground at school now.



Some cheap kings went at auction one good size bugger went for 10 or 15 bucks!



Also was nice to meet @kukuwai and family

Likewise VC great to meet you guys also. Not surprised to hear those creeks were up on your way home, its still pissing down over here !!

Dinner was delicious !!

Think its the first time we have ever had john dory and groper ( courtesy of dad, brought at the fish auction for $25 ) on the BBQ at the same time.
@Gibo we have decided your theory about the john dory may be right as there was a small but whole mackeral in its throat when we filleted it.

"The" best fish in chips I've had, was John dory in tempura batter. Absolutely stunning.

I think John dory and flat fish, blue cod, king fish, snapper - would be my ranking of fin fish for eating.

Took my dad out in my boat Sunday.....not enough water to get his out at applicable times..... as it was I was scraping my keel getting out for about 200m.
Had wanted to get out to big snapper spot but she was a bit lumpy and forcast to turn to shit after lunch so the ol man wasnt too keen in my little boat so we stayed in close and tried to poach @madjon spot but just got absoulty hammered by small kahawai....it was impossible to catch anything else.
3 burly bombs later got the shits and moved out a bit but not far ....another big burly bomb for a couple of mackerel and small Kahawai had got the shits and was winding stuff up to head in close for pannies when finally I caught a half decent snap......so another burly was deployed and more time and bait wasted...headed in tight to a old spot on peppin and got onto the pannies and a few gurnard and some undersize cod with no burly but lots of pilly chunks being biffed over around the top of the tide.
