Left harbour around 3am heading to some fern ground 65 km. Motor purred like a kitten as we travelled 40 odd km in near glassed conditions.
Few drifts on some ground and no result so out further we run. Found a small patch of fern and dropped for some expected fish.
Mate hooked a nice fish and it let go under the water for us to watch it float to the top a nice red jew. Let the anchor rope and reversed uop to him scored him with the gaff thank god it was a red jew if it was red it would have swam back to the bottom.
I got hammered next and another redjew to the esky. Double hook up seen too nice cod end up chilled into the esky. A butterflied hussar produced a beautiful red and my deckie eskied a beautifuol sized cod. Small captures of frying pan snapper some hussars and white finned small cod gave us a small feed of reefies but a few sharks moved in so we moved around.
This only produce one more nice red and then a couple sharks .Then the wind got to 18 knots southerly and was an mongrel to drive into 2.5 hours taking us to get back to the harbour.
