Basil D Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Headed down to shell Harbour on Wednesday with Chris (pongrass) for a fish and and new grounds to explore . Found a couple of squid earlier and lost them to picked on the rigger. Got a couple of Bonitos on the trawl and down rigged one live for a zero. After a while we found some reef off a drop of, anchored up and fished it for a few hours. Ended up with 8 Bonnies, A large 41cm red rock cod, Banjo and a dog shark, three snapper, 1 bream, a 41cm Slimie caught by Chris, huge Yellow tail as big as slimies LOL and the slimies were big as the bonnies, got a couple more squid. Nice day with beer in hand, jokes and laughter, beats work any day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonfishing Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Hey Grouper; just got back from Queensland last night. Good to see you and Cris still reeling them in. Didn't get to do any fishing at all but did a good crabbing session. Did well, had about 10kg of muddies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it seems they have not been around for a while but with all these fish traps and people targeting snapper its hardly surprising. I trying to get a day off this week and take my boys and there mate, I might head down south again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
