A bit of a delay posting
Got up to 1770 for a few days last month after another generous invitation from a mate
Conditions were a bit difficult and the fishing out wide was tough, but some reasonable action a bit closer in.
The usual suspects were caught on the shallower reef, and it was my oldest son William's first trip up , and first outing on the boat in a long long time due to studies.
He accounted for himself well, despite having to resort to bait!
I have been saving this photo of his first small mouth nannygai, as I had read reports of them being a bit ordinary on the plate.
Well my little Margaret Fulton just worked her magic on this one and eight of us (Yeah there were a couple of exchange students too - no, not Swedish girls either!!) absolutely loved it , battered and deep fried with deep fried cauliflower pieces , sweet potato fries and salad ( And icy cold Corona for the grown ups!)
Cheers
Brendan
PS Thaks Paul for filleting it while I pretended to attend to something minor on the boat!

Thanks Steve,
The colour certainly deepened in the box too.

Thanks for posting.
Ironing board cleaning tables - NICE!
Or were you actually in the yard ironing fish?
That fish has such strong colour it looks like a photoshop.
Good size fish - glad it made for a nice meal.
Cheers

Fishing can be defined as "A jerk on one end of the rod, waiting for a jerk on the other".
"Fishing was around along time before you darling"
Nice mate, i reckon they taste gr8.
loverly fush mate, well done. Yes, about the ironing boards, do they go alright? do you ziptie some timber on to the top of them? Why havent i thought of that...
Thanks for the replies fellas
Yeah the Guys I go with are certainly an organized bunch!
Ironing boards , frame tubs, saltwater rinsing, Cryovac, and labelling!
Ironing boards are great! and easy to take on your trip.
Trevelly, I looked at the photo too and thought it looked shopped, thus the comment about the colour. No thats straight from the phone!
Cheers

BTW the ironing boards sometimes have a loose cutting board on top of the steel riffled surface. everything loose for ease of cleaning.
Boony , the guy doing the filleting on the board behind caught one at least that size , maybe bigger, two days before.
Cheers

Niceone, awesome fish, and I love the ironing board.
I have taken one to fraser island last time i went. From now on every time i go i will take one, now that i found out how usefull they are. The fish sit well and don't slide around with the metal mesh tops gripping the fish, very light and quick to setup as well.
Stonker, I also rate them as good eating.
Beut looking fish, very red.
Nice one
Dan
