squidboy Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 (edited) Hello Raiders, Well i finally got my brand new boat in the water this morning. Headed out from Tunks Park at 5am this morning, only to see another raider boat taking off at the same time. I headed to the spit in Search for squid (failed), however things turned good at Balmoral. Well, squid for Kings, NO KINGS, so Ill practice this once again next weekend. Found a great ball of fish on the way outside of quarantine, but no action from the kings, so I moved on. Went to Sow and Pigs for yakkas then for a different bait. So Here I am will a million other boats (well not quite that many) going for these yakkas and wooshkaa!!! I get a hit on a tiny hook. I pulled up a trevally!!! And then it was on! We caught about 8 of them before we called it quits and headed for Kings again around the markers Once again no King for the Xmas table, now I got some explaining at home when there isnt one on the table Anyway, hope to see you all on the water at one stage.

ophet Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Shame you couldn't christen your new boat with a nice King !!! The conditions must have really put them off the bite. I think there is a lot of pressure on guys out there, to try and get some fish for a xmas feed, good luck to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have spent alot of money and time trying to get one, but I get busted off or they just arent interested. Luck of the day I guess, but I have caught three two years ago. Ill pesist cause I know one day Ill find a school of them and ill be able to go home with a sore back trying to pull them up!!!! Thanks for the reply also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squidboy Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share Posted December 24, 2006 Congrats on buying a new boat What type of boat did u buy? penguin i got a sea Jay 4.35m Runabout. I gotta take the canopy of the boat however, seems to get in the way too often!!!! No name for the boat yet, might be squid related, just got to brainstorm an idea for it. By the way, the trevally were all taken on peeled prawns my dad bought which were imported from Thailand. I can never understand whats wrong with selling Australia prawns Anyhow, still had a great day out to get the boat out. See you all out there some time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
