Yesterday's Fish
Headed out yesterday for a fish with ol'mate Gary aka "SavDefender" (the blokes who's posts pics of his kids out fishing him), anyway the cockburn sound was our only real option with prevailing weather conditions.
Having not lived here for a few years, didn't really have any spots to try so we anchored up on some likely ground & set a berly trail to see what we could coax in. We must of got something right, as we managed to land a dozen KG's that hit the esky pretty smartly, not monsters thou, a monster flounder & a few herring that hit frypan onboard for breaky.
We then hit the inside of GI for some squid, but it was very quiet. not sure if the weather has much to do with them as the vis was good to 4mtr, but stormy all day?? Managed 1 squid, 30+cm tube, he was loaded too, I took a hit on the shoulder & Gaz a hit on the back. We then moved to north & again set up over some sand in the attempt to land some sand whiting or skippy, but only managed a couple more decent kg's to 35cm, gardies were plague proportion, nailing baits on the bottom.
Overall a pleasant day considering the weather, with some KG fillets for dinner, gardies for breaky & herring for the smoker. Cheers again Gazman
The one & only
Sure beats vegemite on my toast

Nice work Fozz man
KG are always a welcome catch. By my reckoning the squid should be plauging out there at this time of year, surprised you only got one?
Its been a while, we should catch up soon!
P.S. I didn't pick you as being a "Justin" LOL

Hey Fozz was wondering where you'd been.
Nice work on the KG's, the old toasted whiting sandwich takes a lot of beating. Very jealous.
