redcliffe night fish

[TIM-DONSELAAR]

amanda and i met up with peter (rainbowrunner) and kaimen (bassamundi) from this forum at dohles rocks boat ramp at 7pm,from there we headed out to one of there snapper spots just off redcliffe,with the reef anchor set we dropped our pike fillets down,around 10-20 minutes later kaimen hooked up on something at the same time i did,he pulled up a little gummy shark and i pulled up a medium size wobbegong,things went quiet for a while then kaimen got another hook up to a medium size gummy shark,then around 30 minutes later pete hooked up and called it for a squire/snapper and he was right,1 nice snapper in the esky,we flicked some more burley over the side and waited patiently,not long after amanda hooked up to a nice cod which we returned to grow bigger,then things went dead quiet and we were all tired and cold so we headed back to the ramp.

thanks for the trip out pete,and amanda said thanks for letting us take the snapper for her dad he will be a very happy man

cheers tim
