Howdy,
Had a trip to Palmy this mornin, got up to a 11-15 knot southerly and decided it was now or never.
We were the only boat to pass through the bar until 7am
water was blue and warm with only a 1.3m swell, we set floatin pillies.
the furthest pillie went first with a solid run and produced the fish below [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]
We then obtained a few yakkas and despatched then under ballons...took only 5 min for one to be smashed another 5 saw the fish 10ft under the boat...another spaniard, It took 1 more run then for some reason suddenly after slowing some what, picked up speed and was unstoppable eventually breaking us off on the reef . The line come back frayed, we had supplied a tasty breaky to a man in grey suit (sharky)
we lost 1 more yakka to an unknown with no hook up.
regards
Garry
