Peter Nelson Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Headed up the coast to catch up with the family hoping to head outside for a fish but wasn't looking too good with the size of the swell forecast and the challenge of crossing the bar. It was great to see the 5-8 foot seas never came and the bar was like glass going out on the rising tide. We hit a headland straight up for some tailor but it was still a bit too dark so hit the kelp grounds hoping to get some big reds on plastics. With no wind there was no drift so gave up on the plastics and flicked some unweighted baits. Ended up with 2 small reds. Moved around a lot to different spots and managed to pick up 1 or 2 fish each move. Dropped one good snapper ,haha "the one that got away" Good day out in the end, looking forwarded to chewing on the pearlies. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
