perfect friday

[bermo82]

Hey fellow ausfishers,

long time reader first time post. After a sleep in on Friday and waking to the winds not being bad as i expected (i only have a 12ft tinny). I decided to start the weekend early so i ventured out to the mouth of caboolture river with some worms in search of the humble winter whiting.

first bait in the water for approx 5 seconds and the fun started and did not stop for about 1 hour in which i pulled in kept 25 winteries all in the 20cm range with quite a few going over 25cm. I only had about 10 throw backs for the day!

towards the end of a drift i was chatting to an old timer in a boat not far from me who couldn't raise a fish as he was using squid. i gave him the remainder of my worms in which he was grateful for and had caught 5 whiting in the short time i was next him still chatting.

I finished up the great day by trolling a 3" pumpkin seed gulp super slow along a bank on the way to the boat ramp and managed to nail 2 solid flathead going 47 and 55cm.

great weather, a great feed, and great to see the roosters get beaten enjoying a few cheeky ones at the local club where a mate won 300 bucks on the pokies. I reckon it was Karma for the worms.

Cheers

Bermo
