G'day Ausfishers
After many months of not wetting a line, I finally got my act together. Things didn't get off to a great start at Easter when we towed the boat around 600km's round trip to Inskip Point and didn't even put it (or a line) in the water. We had to take it anyway to fit all the camping gear in so we had one of the nicest box trailers in the Rainbow Beach area that long weekend. On our return to Brisbane I parked the boat, still packed with all the fishing gear, in the garage rather than unpacking it a pushing it around the side of the house. This is the secret I think as I can have it packed ready to go with the greatest of ease. Only downside is the ute has to get parked out on the driveway - a small price to pay.
So here are my reports:
Tuesday 25 March, 10am to 2pm, Mud Island - 2 squire (45cm) and 1 grassy sweetlip (35cm), about 8 undersize squire and sweetlip
Friday 28 March, 1pm to 3pm , Green Island - all undersize, about 20 squire, 1 flathead, 1 tailor
Saturday 29 March, 10am to 4pm, Mud Island - 4 squire (42-46cm) and 1 grassy sweetlip (34cm), about 10 undersize squire
Tuesday 1 April, Mud Island, 10am to 2pm - 1 squire (42cm), 3 undersize squire and sweetlip
All fish were caught on plastics, and a mix of TT and home-made jigheads. Nothing really spectacular but good fun on light gear and a nice feed. I'm a happy man. Hopefully more regular reports in the future.
Cheers
Brad
