Terrigal/Norah Head wide reefs Monday

[rjts]

Fished out of Norah Hd ramp today as Terrigals still closed, late start so I couldn't get livies.Tried a couple of runs past the Bull first as a local spear'o got a 16kg King there early in the week & said their was a large school of them.Only about a 30min run from there to the Lobster Grounds compared to nearly an hour from Terrigal.Their were a few boats at Texas,I got some Kings on jigs;average 75cm,a couple of metre fish were caught(on livies).Headed further Nth to another spot,had the school to myself for 20 min or so until a pro joind me.Got some better Kings 80-85cm & some decent Trag(1on a jig).Done a few bottom drifts for some Mowies.No more Trag,reds or Perch though. Marked several good schools,Reckon I would have cleaned up with livies.Some mates fished the Cones & Perch Grounds on Saturday,they got 3 good reds a few Perch but only 3legal Kings,best2 5&6kg cleaned. Light wind/sea so flew back in but managed to bog my vehicle while retrieving the boat on CTBay beach.Some Fisheries officers there helped me get it out,still pretty embarrassing for a local to do that. Good day though wish I could have every Monday off.

Nice report mate. Yes the fish always seem to bite better on Mondays. Lol.
