They're thick gents - Queen street time

[bugman]

Sorry gents... not being rude but I buggered off to Melb for a few days after putting up this post.

Seems the word did spread and a few boys got to sample the Wahoo action out around Hutchies. For those that were out there on the weekend - imagine what it would have been like midweek when you were the only boat there

Was a bit elusive with the sail - can't actually count as a capture as I dropped it at the boat after about 20mins. Just simply spat the lure. The first 3mins were unbelievable with the fish hardly in the water. It was the best aerobatic display from a fish I have ever seen. I was only running three rod - 1 with a hex head, 1 with a blue pillie and one with an el cheapo skirt. The hex head and blue pillie took a wahoo each and the skirt tempted the sail.

Doug, The viz was excellent - 20m if not more and the cray came from that ledge of coffee rock only a couple of hundred metres from the cape. I wasn't really looking but my mate was keen to try and spear a fish which is why we stopped. I saw two dead/eaten crays on the bottom so I started poking around.

Dan, That would have been me. It's interesting taking here through peak hour traffic.

Mick, shame it's closed season

Neil, Was that your Discovery in the carpark with the Ausfish stickers. I couldn't pick who it was.

Jamie,

You must have passed me just as I left home - that's only a couple of blocks away from where I live. Should have waved. Actually we couldn't see Brisbane most of the day because of this dark sombre cloud that engulfed it. However out at Hutchies/Flinders and at Moreton it was bloody beautiful. We even had bright sunshine at about 1:00pm and it never rained on us until we got back to Scarborough.

Nils, The two visitors I took out there were the entire purpose of the trip. It was for a snorkelling session at flinders. We fished for 30 mins just to keep my mate Chris and I happy. The two 18 year old girls were from Switzerland and Costa Rica respectively. I'm not sure they payed all that much attention to the fishing possibilities of Hutchies

They looked good in bikinis though (Lucky Leanne never looks in here)

Sounds like a really tough trip there bugman.
Really tough indeed... No wonder you only caught the one billfish, the rest of the time you had your eyes on things other than the troll rods... Fishing like all sports is a difficult game when you are badly distracted... I have been there myself once or twice...
Good on ya mate,
Cheers Fritzy
