Headed over to the harbour today with my mate in the morning at 11am, and was driving in the pouring rain even though forecast said it was raining we still went, while driving we were praying that it wouldnt rain when we get there!
A miracle happened as we got there the cloudy sky had a hole directly above where we were fishing lol so no rain for us!!! and then later on it cleared up so it was good.
This time we bought gear for surgeons since we have always lost them at this spot. When we got there burleyed up. A tonne of them came up all ranging from 30cm to 60cm surgeons! We got visual hook ups.
My mate lost an average surgeon under the wharf first, then i got a hook up also but it was heading straight for the pylon so i held on to my spool without thinking fishing at 30lb braid thinking it wouldnt break theN POP! goes the line and got owned by a big surgeon. Drkcld rigged up and then was onto another surgeon but this time it swam out instead of under the wharf. then finally landed this strong fish. After landing the surgeon the hook was nearly bent off lucky me
35cm surgeon
33cm blackfish was also caught amongst the burley trail.
