clontarf / pine 17/9

[kingcray]

they were tough to find but after trying about 7 or 8 spots over probably 4 hours ended up with another nice feed of tings and 1 sandy to start the crabbin season.

Pots were soaking for about 5 hours for just the one male and a half dozen girls.
Plenty of that blankety weed all over the pots when i pulled em in.

Caught most of the whiting drifting the sand flats towards the bridges, along with a few undersize flatties. Biggest were around the 35cm. Also noticed quite a bit more of that snot weed around today which is a pain.

Sure beats the hell outta workin. best part is im back there tomorrow with the old boy then out to Mud on wednesday!

The kids had some fun too when i tried to clean up.

Cheers

slayed them again kingcray...hopefully the weather holds off for you the next cpl of days or the little ones mightn't be the only ones with a wet arse if the forecast is anything to go by.

Very jealous.

I had been looking forward to seeing your report after you posted you would go out. I was very tempted to go myself today but I have a short week at work and had to sacrifice the fishing.

Was the sandy from the Pine, or out further?

Might need to pack an umbrella.

Nice work Kingcray. I was out there too yesterday having a first look for the summer for some bream and flathead. Didn't find a single flathead but managed 9 bream (kept 6) and a solid summer whiting (on a 1/0 hook!).

The skies above looking menacing as we pulled up on our spot.


Sat down and started filleting, heard a small squawk come from behind me and turned around the see all these critters!!! I found out they love the whiting roe.
