Kiwi Dan Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Well done on the bonnies mate. Good to know as im heading out the front on the weekend. The close FAD has been removed for winter maintenance.
GregL Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Nice day Brickman, how was the current running up at Longy? Last week it was running atleast 5kn from the north against the Wall, we were drifting at 3kn against wind and swell! Greg
brickman Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 still from the north greg not to shore on the speed but it was ripping over the wall and it was more like 2 meter swell rather than 1.3 so i gave the wall a miss and fished the reef to the south cherrs gary

hooklineanddrinker Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Now that's a haul!!! I'm getting some of my lines bitten off on the rocks too! Good to see you thinning out the plague ... and eating well too.
slinkymalinky Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Good times Brickman. At least the one consolation with Leatheries is they taste really good. Haven't come across them up here yet but I'm guessing they're around somewhere. Cheers, Slinky
