G'day
Well.... wednesday arvo saw me put in at wello about 4pm..............and the wind was blowing. I had aspirations of going up to green but not a chance. Had a friend of mine onboard from work so we dropped the pots off and headed up to huybers. Stayed there for 10 minutes and thought bugger it. Swell was large and wind was 25kts. Pretty big in a 12' tinny. Left the pots overnight and went back this morning to finde a coupla undrsize crabs and a jenny or 2. All sandies... nothing too exciting. Took the boat round to tinny creek for high tide, and i felt like belting up there again as it's been a while. It was good practice on learning to read the sounder as i've recently skimmed through that post in the electronics section. I went up as far as i physically could on a high tide and then pulled a lure on the way back down the creek. Achieved a couple of hits but no hookups. Lets damn well hope this wind dies out for next week.
