Sunday Fishing at 5 Fathom & to the 20 metre line

Went fishing today from Rockingham, headed out at 7.00am and went to the 5 fathom bank. Not long after we arrived we caught a samson fish.

A lot of bait fish were swimming around but no real surface action appeared until later in the day when a few fish started to jump.

After a few drifts over the ground we caught a couple of Snapper just under the size limit. Caught a few Black arse and skippy.

We went for a troll and hooked into the a yellow tail king fish, when we were bring into the boat a shark tried to take the kingfish, lucky for us we were quiker than the 1.5 mt shark.

All in all a good days fishing and we were back at the ramp by 12.30
