61 crusher Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Headed out yesterday morning out of Brissie waters knowing the sea and weather was going to be great. Stopped at half tide rocks on the last of the run out tide and showed him how to use a soft plastic, had two quick drifts before the tide stopped, I managed one flattie at 50cm no joy for him. Next off to the bait grounds for a tank full of slimies & a few yakkas he had a ball on the handline, then headed for the flathead grounds, 300m into our run fish where busting up so out came the 2 to 4kg stick with a metal on it, he managed 6 legal tailor. 8am by this stage and a big smile on his dial we headed out, on the way we came across a pod of dolphins & quite a few schools of yakkas & slimies feeding, this is great was his comment 🙂,managed to bag out on the flatties, moved around a bit to avoid the little ones while fog rolled in about 11am and stayed around for the rest of the day. We moved in to about 30ms where he got a mixed bag.We headed in about 3pma pic of his fish, he couldn’t thank me enough for his best fishing day ever. “Happy days” 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratchie Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Sounds like an awesome day out. I’m sure your brother in law won’t forget it. Then there’s the bonus of bringing back a nice mixed bag! Top shelf 👍 cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are actually a very nice tasting sweet fish, they leave a yowie fish (Morwong) for dead, small fillets for size of fish big ones are a better yield, they also are gun Livies for yellowfin ,they stand out like a bright neon light in the deep blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankS Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I remember about 20 years ago or more I went to a sea food restaurant in Adelaide, the one in a old sail ship, and I ordered Snapper, out comes the plate with a Nanigui staring at me, I told the waiter I ordered Snapper NOT Nanigui and the waiter came back with " the chef insures me that that IS a Snapper. I ate it but never been back there again. I later found out that commersially they are called Snapper in some fish markets!!!. . Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveBM Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Also, pretty sure these are Alfonsino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfish Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I would guess Nannygai. Alfonsino are a deep water species and reading 61Crushers report I would think he never got that deep. My guess anyway 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you fillet them and take out the lateral line, no bones. Most red to orange fish are yummy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
