TheCount Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 My 18yo comes home from work last Friday night and asks those magic 6 words:- "Dad, can we go fishing tomorrow?" Sure can Son - I'll wake you at 5. It's been about 3 years since he's come out and I couldn't have been happier getting the gear ready that night. Put in at Woy Woy at about 6, and fished from the Rip Bridge through to Wagstaffe with garlic chicken for bait. As the tide was running out to the low, drifting along seemed the most appropriate. Came home with 2 x flounder (41cm & 38cm), 2 bream (both 31cm), and 2 flathead (51cm and 45cm) after our 3 hour tour. Looking forward to the next time.

What do you use thighs? Chicken breast at the moment so I slice 1kg into a mix of sizes, add about 8 cloves of fresh garlic, mix and in the fridge for the next day or freeze if not. Tends to last 4 or 5 trips. On 16 August 2017 at 0:03 PM, DaveBM said: "A three hour tour", eh?
