just been up at noosa for 5 nights and had the boat in tow. hadn't used the boat for a good 3-4 months :'(
took my boat out on her first ever offshore trip on monday. went out to halls reef. the bar was a little rough but i got through it with only 2 waves breaking over the front. ;D
got out there and started to get some bites. adam was onto a good fish which later got off. >:(crappy gear made it very hard to bring it up. from the way it was fighting it was thought to have been a decent squire/snapper. ???
i then began feeling sea sick so we went back across the bar at low tide. only just managed to squeese over the sand banks on the run to the bar.
went out that night for a night fish and had 2 good fish on both lost due to biting through the trace. probably jacks or tailor.
landed only 7 fish for the 5 days. 2 little bream 2 yakkas 1 little lipper 1 moses perch and 1 legal grunter bream.
it was great to get the boat wet again and spent more time in the boat than out of it.
can;t wait till next trip to noosa
cheers phil
