  1. Hi all,

    Long time between posts, I know. Sorry.

    Went out yesterday launching at Rose Bay at 0430. Found out we bumped into another raider VA911 after reading his report. Congrats on the red.

    Went for live bait, JA picks up a 33cm bream on a bait jig, so I lob one in too and pick up a 34cm bream. MT then picks up a thumper squid, 40cm hood. No livies.... so we head out. post-695-1253444675_thumb.jpg

    We meet VA911 again and he tells us he's just lost a big red. We motor on a little further and give it a crack. Not much happening. Couple of wrasse around.

    We change spots and I get a double header of Amberjack. Then another on it's own.

    While moving spots, we see a bait school being busted up by a couple of seals and dolphins. post-695-1253444779_thumb.jpg

    As we come towards north head we see some boats chasing a school of fish. We didn't know what they were but we started throwing whatever we had at them. We end up with 2 salmon, 2 trevors and 2 yakka. All the boats were great, no one driving through the school, giving each other space etc. Very civil. We did manage to see a whale chasing the school around too. It was only small as we thought it was a shark at first but when it surfaced, it was a whale. Would anyone know what sort of whales we get out of Sydney. It was only small, not a hump back or anything.

    Could it be a minke?

    That was all for the day.post-695-1253444779_thumb.jpg

  2. The :wife: and I went down the there last night at about 1930. Didn't see much actions till about 2200hrs. Caught one at 27cm and then the wife came back from her walk. Grabbed a rod and proceeded to catch a whiting at 36cm. :1yikes: I managed to catch one at 36cm too but she had the last laugh with another at 34cm. We had some live beach worms. Bumped into a mate who hadn't caught much and gave him a couple of worms. It worked a treat as he caught a 29cm whiting.

    After that the wife wanted to go so we ended up giving our mate a couple more worms and one of our whitng. Not that much meat on just one whiting. :biggrin2:

  3. Went out of the Harbour today.

    Tried to stir up jjsyd but he didn't get my message until too late. Oh well next time.

    Wasn't sure about heading out wide but glad we did.

    Seas were flat and the wind was light.

    Trolled from the 12 mile towards Browns didn't turn a reel. We did see one marlin free jumping but he wouldn't play.

    On the way home, saw a charter boat in reverse, so he must have been on so out the lures went again and we got one small yft.

    Nice day to be out though.

  4. Hi Raiders,

    I have to admit to being a long time reader first time writer.

    Sorry it's a little late. Went out of the harbour last week end. Trolled around Bluefish Point for one rat king. 57cm. He went back in the drink. We didn't really stop for too long.

    Ducked back inside to the yellow marker and it was Pitt St there. One flounder.

    Headed to Coogee for heaps of sweep, wrasse and one fish which we couldn't identify. It had a blue body with a yellow stripe from the shoulders to the tail on top... any takers??

    Thanks

    David.
