Hey Guys, ;)
Got up this morning at about 8 and looked outside expecting to see wind, but not that much, but It didnt stop me and My dad going out for a trip in the Nerang river. We pumped some Wriggler worms at about 9:30 and then headed out at about 10 to fish the incoming tide for Whiting. It was terribly hard to fish with the solid 30 knot breeze with even stronger gusts.
No fish in the first 1 1/2 Hours so things were starting to look pretty bad :( . The tide hadnt started running properly though and we were hoping that when it did it would make a difference, and it did, Sortof.
After sitting in a spot near the Council Chambers for 30 mins all of sudden we were on to a few whiting, and they were decent. The 4 fish picked up in that spot were all over 30cm and the biggest going 33cm (My PB Whiting ;D ) then all of a sudden it stopped. We picked up a couple of bream aswell along the way trying at nearly any spot that was protected before ending up at our last spot, where we picked up 4 or 5 whiting quickly before they stopped again.
Ending up with 10 Whiting (5 over 30cm) and 2 Bream wasnt such a bad effort after all but it definetly wasnt the best weather for fishing.
Cheers :)
