KH 15 (my son Kyle) & I decided on an early morning plastics session at Peel. Conditions were OK on the western side though the odd shower kept us a bit damp.
We drifted the reef edge on the outgoing tide and KH 15 manage a 35cm squire on a nuc chook within the first 10 minutes. My Atomic prong managed a grinner and my change to a pumkinseed gulp minnow resulted in a spiny toadie!
As the tide slowed we trolled some hardbodies around SW rocks to Horseshoe Bay hoping for a stray doggie mac and though we had heaps of small hits we only picked up a few grinners.
The weather started to turn nasty so we sheltered in the bay and tried a few drifts. First drift resulted in a triple hook-up. A small squire on the nuc chook for KH 15, a larger squire on an Atomic prong for me and a 1m black-tip shark on a watermelon gulp minnow!
All hell broke loose as we landed all three fish and the bloody shark managed to chew a hole in my landing net!
Another quiet troll on the way home with no result and that was it for the morning.
No pics as the fish weren't worth it!
Pete
