South of Jibbon

[Yowie]

Headed out in a mate's boat to Jibbon Bombie and dropped some soft plastics for 1 little Red Rockie, the only hit. Nothing showing on his new sounder.

Moved down to near Little Marley, a few schools of bait fish showing but nothing else there, so out came the flattie gear. Only one drift, but it was a slow one as not much current or wind, and not much swell. Fish were patchy, total of 18 over a few hours, not too big and the biggest over the 40cm mark. Spikey fillets used for bait.

Some baits were stripped down to the skin, so a few small jackets I suspect were the culprits.

The flatties in the photo appear to be talking to me, most with their mouths open.
