Got to the boat ramp around 0600 hours, the plan was to head out to mossy's reef and see if we could catch one of those larger snapper that have been eluding me for some time.
First few cast and old mate comes tight on a good fish, it starts screaming off and he is worried he'll loose the lot, I was pumped. Got in the other lines and then dropped the leccy for the chase, was going flat out and was abit choppy so it wasn't easy. Plenty of head shakes and we call it for a nice snapper.
About 10-15 mins of pump and wind on old mates behalf, I was busy on the leccy giving chase. Comes close and we see abit of colour and a beautiful fish it was.
Netted the bad girl and the smile on my mates face was huge. That is one nice fish I say as I tell him that's it I'm naming the tinny "charter boat". Put her on the matt and come close to 69 but would say about 68.5 LoL. Threw her in the esky and lines back out.
Drifted the spot a few more times, plenty of squire and a few of them brown fish I thought they were grassies, not 100% sure so they went back. Was abit quiet so we decided to head to another spot I was shown by netmaker (davo). Got a few more fish with not many big ones around.
We pretty much fished most of the way around mud after mosy's reef and found a cod along our travels in some pretty shallow waters but plenty of structure.
All fish taken on soft plastics big thanks to Dayoo for the quality jigs, if old mate had one of the tt's I used to use he would of lost the that snapper for sure, it crushed the jig head but it held strong with quality hooks!
