madmac Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 was on the water by 6am, headed out to molinaux point to get some livies, got 3 yakkas then headed over to the runway, berleyed hard for an hour and got nothing. had a drift over the bay for bugger all. we then headed to watts reef and again berleyed hard, once the tide stopped running we picked up 2 legal snapper and 2 trevally. didnt get much else after that, just one reasonable size tailor. wasnt a great day, but at least we got a feed and it was the first time my mrs has ever caught a decent size fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pity you chucked them back if they were legal as they are a great eating fish. Good going getting a few reds too...Well done. Can't wait until Sunday now to get back amongst those kingies.

madmac Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 well done on the kingys fish lipps, i think i may have hooked one while i was there. i was floating peeled prawns down the berley on 3kg gear and hooked something that was big and fast. it ripped off about 50 metres of line before busting me off.

Penguin Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 (edited) Nice Kingys Fishlipps. Go the peeled prawns madmac who says u need squid to catch Kings. And by the way I dont know how some guys(and I aint pointing fingers at anybody)go fishing without some sort of fish measuring device or tape measure. How do u know if that fish u have decided to keep is legal, responsible fishos should have something,especialy if they are Raiders. We have to be seen to be doing the right thing guys. penguin Edited January 27, 2007 by penguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
