Cal Wide Friday

[Fisher_Boats]

Took new boat owner Bill on Mabel Grace out to teach him about his new boat

Headed out to Cal Wide from Bribie into a small North East chop, the further we went the better it got.

Quite a few schools of birds were working on the banks so there might be a few spotties showing up

Fishing was a bit slow at first with heaps of rat kingies around the place.

Headed a bit further north in glass conditions and ended up getting onto school size snapper up to about 5 kgs.

Ended up with 18 snapper, a few parrot and other mixed stuff , before pulling the pin about 2.00pm

The bite was full on around mid day for an hour or so with them taking floaters and bottom bashers.

All in all a top day on the water and a good trip to blood Bill's new boat.

Here's a few pics

Cheers Col

Healthy looking kill tank

Col, that water is absolute MAGIC mate ....probably the same again today

I'm into it crack of dawn tomorrow

Nice work Col. I'll be out that way in the morning. Still haven't picked up any zooms, but will give the snapbacks another go.

Hey Alchemist - keep your eye on the ball with those snapbacks - ie no lazy rod work - ra

Good luck out there tommorow

What a day to be out there showing the new owner(lucky bugger)the in's and outs of the boat and whats more you put him onto some good fish
I think you might bring a new meaning to the phrase..The worst days fishing is better than a good day at work

Nice one Col - now THAT's customer service...

18 Snapper is a good haul - is that normal for this time of year??

[Fisher_Boats]

Mitch.....We can do that ....tooo easy

Robbie .......We got good snapper this time last year as well, to me it's hard to say what's normal they seem to be around most of the time. Where we got them is normally a good pearlie spot but we only got one decent pearlie

Lone Wolf.....you can see that boat here.
