Off the cape

[ooglie74]

I headed out on sunday on liberty for a day of action.
We started in trench,had a troll for a few hours.
We found a bit of bait in the pocket could raise a strike so we headed to the top end of the trench.Had 2 shots on the way both huge dollies(pictures attached).
We found heaps of bait,45mtrs deep and 40mtrs of thick bait.
There where birds everywhere,Big holes in the bait.Again no shots.
So we headed to spot x in 45mtrs with reef around it.
We caught several species in the action that followed in the next 3 or so hours.
Snappery Squire,Dolphin fish,Kingies,Pearlies,mack tuna and also an eagle ray all on nuclear chooks( what cant those things catch).
We also witnessed a bait ball being smashed by mack tuna, yellowfin,dolphin fish,Gaint trevally and 3 big sharks it was an awesome sight.
A great day was had by all.
The end result was
5 snapper/Squire
2 pearlies
3 or 4 kings
3 dolphinfish
3 mack tuna
1 eagle ray

Well Done Troy,

I hope you weren't fishing in any green zones.

I might go out tomorrow for a troll.

I will let you know how I go.

You got out mate - well done. Pretty little dollies. Manta ray on a chook- fun. Whats that in the water near the tail of the snap?
Need to try do Two trips between now and chrissy. Will give you a call.

Cheers Scott.

Well Done Troy,

I hope you weren't fishing in any green zones.

Unless Hutchies is now a green zone, that's not very likely!!!

Was a good day. You know its a good day when you delay departure from Hutchies until 4:00pm with a last lift out at 4:40pm at Bribie in 15-20s.

Made it with seconds to spare ..



You should have seen Troy's expression when he realised his omg-this-must-be-my-largest-fish-ever was a Ray ...

OMG, we must have missed that!!! It would have to be at least a 30kg Mahi Mahi!!! The fish of the day wasted. Caught on film, while Troy flounces around parading his fifth stoopid Snapper for the day.

Either that or it was our parachute drogue.

Troy ive got out once since i spoke to you, conditions were ugly but got a good feed. Hopefully this weekend mate. Talk soon, Deano.
