Gday guys, just a quick report from a trip today. Left Caloundra at 5.00am today for a pretty adventurous trip across the bar[emoji15]. Once outside it was pretty messy as I had expected. The forecast was for only 10-15 knots both yesterday and today. After waking every hour and checking Seabreeze, I knew it was going to be ordinary. 20+ all night. Slogged it slowly to wide Caloundra and the pearlies were there and hungry. Caught a few then headed to the 100m area for nil. There was a bit of current running but not too bad. I was thinking the wind was easing but I was dreaming. About 20 knots or better all day. I pushed out to 210m and found a good show of fish but I couldn’t get the drift right. It didn’t matter what I did I couldn’t get the same drift twice and missed the fish every time. I find it difficult to do the reversing and fishing gig solo. I swallowed the pride and went back in to top up the bag of pearlies which didn’t take long. Once again, fishing was ok but weather was ordinary.
I was home in time for school pickup which is always a plus
Cheers
Lee
