jenno64 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Headed out about 6:30am yesterday after collecting some poddies on the smaller side. I was looking for a feed of flatties for a family BBQ.As the tide had already turned I headed upstream for half a km and started drifting towards the bridge. No joy on the sounder and I picked up a nice flatty in the mid 50s that I dispatched into my new insulated fish chill bag. Hung around the bridge for a while and baits were being mauled around the neck by squid so I kept drifting. Picked up a smaller flatty in 2m of water then a squid came up on a poddy so I netted it, removed the head and threw it onto my heavy line. Drifting in 8m a couple more arrow squid joined the bag and the squid head was trimmed by pickers. Picked up another few flatties around the 40cm mark to add to my shopping list. I waited until the bottom of the tide to try a spot I had picked small kings up in before and sure enough my lighter outfit screamed. Foolishly I grabbed the other two rods to get the kines in as one was tangled in the screaming line. By the time I grabbed the rod there was no more screaming, just the leader shredded about 20cm up the line. Must always set the hook first before removing other lines! No trophy fish today but a decent feed:) Caught a Grinner on the way back too:) 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
