Hey all,
Beautiful morning for a fish with little breeze forecast, but without a bayworthy boat and just a few hours to spend, i fished between Pinkenba ramp and the sunken wall.
Took the old man out with me as he was in town, his first time on plastics and put him onto a fish so i repaid some of what i owe him for teaching me how to fish.
Anyways, the water was filthy dirty until the tide flooded a little. Managed a nice bream sized squire on a 3 inch Gulp minnow grub whilst we waited for the tide to start moving.
When it did start to run it ran hard and we fished along the the sunken wall for a couple of nice bream and my dad caught a small squire on a gulp minnow in rainbow colour. I got a nice bream 30cm fork length, and a small flathead both on an Atomic Prong in a Natural brown/holo colour.
The bream were sitting in the eddies where water was running back over the wall from the shallow area in behind, right near the top of the tide.
With the water having a lot of run we donated a lot of jigheads an placcies to rocks and structure. :'( Got one more bream on a weedless hook rig and Atomic 3 inch jerkbait on the wall over from the ramp.
Pulled the pin about 11am when the breeze picked up, the six fish was acceptable i spose for 4 hours or so, with half of that time spent re-regging. ;) Most bust offs breaking at the leader knot but needing a lot of effort to break so i suppose that is something +ve.
Sorry no pics but will do that next time.
