Scratchie Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 G’day raiders, Just a quick report from this morning. Headed out with fellow raider Woodsy and hit Broughton Island. Went straight to my favourite spot, had a nice drift, nothing! Current raging north. All the bait seemed to be stacked on the northern side of the structure so we tried that and bang contact with a nice snaps! Next was woodsys turn and a pb on sps for him! Moved a few areas looking for them and finally found the mother load. Nearly every cast was a keeper. Woodsy even managed a nice pearly as bycatch and upgraded his pb. It was a sensational morning and the fishing was red hot. Just glad to be back on the water after a month! Thanks for the day Woodsy! Cheers scratchie!!! 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the whales and containers it’s like a game of frogger! Only joking! Didn’t see much debis but plenty of whales about! Got a good show 50m from the boat! Gotta love PS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodsy1 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Scratchie no need to thank me mate I had a great day [even the way I ended up]. I think I may be converted to the plastics now. We had the fish with a lemon pepper crum, first time I had pearl it was beautiful. Woodsy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Good work there Scratchie, nice feed of reds. Pretty quiet here in W.A. Wind and/or rain at the places I want to fish. Doing much more traveling than fishing. Do have a couple of photos that won't upload from the wife's laptop, so will have to wait till I return.

big Neil Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Plenty of good fish meals happening there Scratchie. Well done guys. Q. With all these whales about at present is there any risk of colliding with one when running flat chat to your favourite spot or is their "sonar" able to help them avoid vessels at speed? May seem like a dumb Q but it's something I've pondered for a while. Cheers, bn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t hit one yet (touch wood). Nor would I like too. Such majestic creatures. We had a visit from two the on this day 30m off our bow! So we started the motor to let them know we were there! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
