brudus Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) Been a while since I have been outside so was very much looking forward to a day out. Called in to my favorite tackle shop in Kyeemagh for the latest news, tips and bait. Tuna out Browns or Morwong off Coogee, NE expected in the afternoon making Coogee the destination of choice. So filled up the bait bucket with pillies and prawns and headed off. Finished the day with a mixed bag of Morwong, flathead, pinkies, tarwhine and nannagui, eagerly shared by friends, family and the neighbours. The neighbours were kind enough to help out with the eating. As an added bonus on my return to Cooks River ramp I was met by two well dressed young fellows who identified themselves as Fisheries. Not sure if they were joking but they asked where in the bay I had been lucky. Edited August 18, 2011 by brudus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squidboy Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Excellent catch there. Seemed to be an excellent day to be on the water and it definitly beat being at work. Good to see fishraiders sharing their catch with their neighbours too. My neighbours love the fish I bring home to them because I normally do not eat a whole lot of fish.

james7 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Great mixed bag there brudus. Some big mowies. What depth were you fishing? And were you anchored or drifting? Also, did you get the tarwhine offshore because I've only ever caught them in close, or off the beach? Good to see the catch shared with family and neighbours. There's a top seafood feast in that lot. Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
