Thread: mud mix

  1. #1

    mud mix

    had a reasonable morning at mud island today in the old fellas tinny. We were off to a terrible start, lost the GPS, sounder wouldnt work, left phone in car, forgot cutting board among other things. Lucky the fish played the game.

    So we pulld up roughly where we thought our mark was about 6 and didnt move til we left to go home. Berleyed up and Fish were quickly biting very well with a lot of just unders and a few decent bustoffs.

    Lost a good mackerel at the back of the boat which pulled nearly 150m of 10lb braid off my spool before getting him back close. Eventually pulled the clip through on my snap swivel was pissed off to say the least. Lesson learnt

    Back home just after 10. Beautiful day on the bay
    A few keepers with my best snap for a while going 58. (slateys are for the neighbours)
    Hope to get back out next week some time while on hols.
    Cheers

    Re: mud mix

    thanks mossy mick brock and trick.
    Brock i was somewhere off the northwestern corner. As we had no GPS or sounder it was all ass. I think we were at least 100m away from any other boat too which really helps, and plenty of berleying too

    Rosco - no mate didnt see that happen, but i did see one dolphin jump clear out of the water and swallow a seagull whole lol. Petero will have them fired up no doubt, gonna be tough for your boys

    Good hall kingcray! Thinking of taking a trip over there in my tinny. Not sure how safe as I normally use it in estuaries and never really in the open, it's a 25hp 4.2 deep side tinny. Just wondering the specs of the tinny you used to get over there? Obviously I would pick a calm day.

    Thanks

    Re: mud mix

    John, i leave from clontarf when i go to mud so it has to be a pretty good day for me too.
    I either take my boat - 4.3 tinny with 30hp or the missus dads - 4.5 40hp.
    Anything blowing over 10knots i dont bother
