Woke this morning with magic conditions, so I went fishing instead of hitting the books like I'd planned. Water was glassed out but chockers full of weed, branches and the occasional log. Went looking for a few snapper and I managed a couple, one around 40cms and another that just hit the 50cm mark, the bigger of the two came home for dinner, the other released.
Around lunch we spotted a large school of bait up in the shallows chasing bait around, so we went to investigate, as you do, we thought it may have been a school of tailor chasing the small bait we could see scattering.
Turned out to be a big school of sea mullet, my brother hooked up to the one in the pic, clean take in the corner of the mouth. I've heard of them taking a plastic on the rare occasion but never seen one. It was about as long as the snapper I took home
.
Our mate Dave also managed a nice 45cm dusky later towards the bottom of the tide, he took that home for his dinner.
