It was time to have a look for some more whiting off theshore in the Broadwater. I arrived at The Spit in the late afternoon and got agood whiting first cast. Perhaps the fish would be really on I thought tomyself, but no. The first fish proved to be the best for the trip. I persistedat The Spit for a few hours and got a few more fish but quite a few toads, undersizedcrabs and a horde of undersized whiting. The Bogans that are usually are commonin the area seemed absent but the empty cans of Woodstock Bourbon and cokesuggested they may have been feeding there on the previous tide.
I decided to make a move to Marine Parade. Some undersizedbogans were present with a goon bag, but they quickly moved on. A fish againfirst cast, but only the occasional whiting after that. No toads or crabs, butevery second fish seemed to be a stingray and I managed a trifecta of stingrayspecies.
About half the whiting were caught at The Spit and the otherhalf along Marine Parade.
A good but not spectacular feed.
