Checked my Almanac which showed that last night and next Saturday night were the prime times to go to rock x at Raby Bay.
Being mostly land based this has been a favourite spot of mine and Rick (my recently dead labrador). Both Rick and I had marked the rock on many an occasion so fishing without him there was a little sad. :-[
Anyway opened up the tin of Cat Food burley (always used cat food so Rick would not want it - does not matter now I suppose):(
And just as the high slowly started to ooze back into the cold, dark depths - (imagine being pulled into that water by a giant octypus at night in winter - horrible) - I started tossing and retrieving my pilli on a three hook rig. No sooner does it hit the water then tap, tap, .............................tap.................. .................................................. ............bummer wind back in no tail.......must be Tailor.
Out again and I am on with a nice big grinner. ;D This is closely followed by a number of hits and misses for over 40 minutes - ended up with 20 nice Tailor and one big Grinner landed - kept five.
I have attached a photo of the five Tailor on Rick's Rock.........should be good there this Saturday night
