I headed out to Curtin for the first time early this morning to try and get away from all the traffic on the water::) Yeah right:-/

I made an attempt at anchoring up just north of all the parked boats but the current was running so hard I missed my target. I pulled up the anchor and had a second go with much more success.
I then realised that I didn't have any big leads in my boat that would get my bait down>:( I ended up raiding my tackle box for the biggest leads I had and put a hand full of them on, but even then I still couldn't get to the bottom:(

The current eventually started to slow and my bait finally made it down to where all the critters on the sounder were showing. Within minutes..bamm.. I was on! 38cm snapp. I think the lead I was using weighed more:-X I felt sorry for the poor thing so I let him go;)

Anyway, it was a good be out on the water with such good weather.

Who was it that was in the open boat with the massive Ausfish sticker on the side? I saw you head up towards Bulwer and then I passed you again a bit later on. I was in the white 4.55 TABS side console.

Open boat and massive stickers sounds like my old boat (kingtin). was it a white 20footer tinny that looked like an overgrown stessl?

Umm, I don't remember it being white. I think it was grey or green or maybe just raw alloy.
I really cant remember now, think I need some sleep.
