Hey mate,
I saw you down at fingal ramp that morning, i was with my brother in the centre console longboat launching right next to you guys. I had a feeling i recognised you! next time i'll say g'day... We trolled fidos early for nothing then anchored off kingy and caught a 10kg yellowfin on a livie. On the way home we trolled up a wahoo at the mudhole only to have it spit the hooks near the boat. The yellowfin made it worthwhile anyway. Good to see you had some fun up at palmy! - simon
They are great chewing at that size Andrew. Congrats on your first. The fish looks in great condition.....well....maybe not seeing as there's a gaff in it lol.
Cheers and well done again
Paul

We watch you guys at the bar .... did you have any trouble getting across? We went out on the Nth side and almost flipped ....... shere luck that we didn't as we got smashed by 2 waves that just stood up in frount of us,they came out of no where
Yeah i was surprised how average the bar conditions were that day... We didn't have any trouble, just watched it for a while and snuck out more on the southern side and cut across behind that shallow section near the north wall. The yellowfin went pretty hard, especially cos we were at anchor and using mackerel drag settings... good fun.
When I read your post I did this at the end!!
Well done mate.
Not so nice to hear you almost lost it on the bar though! Whatever you do don't let me see you in our emergency dept mate!!
Look after yourself!
Cool Cobe, but careful on the bar mate.
So are the spotties back on bigtime or just scattered?
Franko, asmuch as it would be great to catch up with you one day, I only ever want it to be on the water and never at work,When I read your post I did this at the end!!
Well done mate.

Look after yourself!. I have the greatest of confidence in the skipper even though he is a young fella never takes any risks, he has been in the water once while at sea and dosn't want a repeat, I have seen him turn the boat around and head back to the ramp on days that I would of gone out without a second thought
Always careful on any bar mate, As for the spotties,mmmmmm, there were a few around but not in great numbers we boated 4 for the day with most boats doing the same,
