Just had two weeks at Caloundra, fishing the top end of the passage.
I managed to fish 10 days and the full moon night.
Nothing to set the world on fire but I managed 89 Fish for the period. 85 Bream and 4 Flathead.
Yesterday, Friday scored a dozen bream and three Flathead. Two of the flathead caught and released. Both just over a metre long, the first I cut off beside the boat as I could not land it on my own and the second I managed to land in the net and bring on board and then release. Both massive fish and caught on a 5ft spin rod with 6 pound line with 14 pound vanish leader.
I just wish my digital camera wasn't broken, my wife watched the whole ordeal from the unit on the binoculars.
I used chicken breast for bait the whole two weeks.
If you saw a blue hornet up there that was me.
