Outside Port Hacking

[Yowie]

Fished early this morning before the wind picked up. Drifted south of Jibbon Bombie for 10 flathead to 45cm, and 3 bonito a bit smaller.

The bonito swam past occasionally in small schools, so it was a matter of throwing a metal lure at them hoping for a hook-up.

Hooked a couple of small spiky flathead, so as I pulled them up, I felt an occasional heavy weight on the line, which would let go, and then grab on again. As the little flatties hit the surface, I saw a blue spot flathead swimming with them. I dropped the line down a short distance, and the blue spot grabbed one of the little flatties across the middle and gave it a good shake. I lifted the line into the boat, and the blue spot hung on until he was in the boat. He was never hooked, just too greedy to let go.

Yowie.
