Friday Kingie chasing - squid and fisheries inspection

[Pickles]

Went out wide with raider  “Rev” and “Stevo” for Kingies (Longie, Iggy, Mugs). Always begins with a squid session. Because we were after snapper as well, only spent 15 minutes around the cliffs north of the Heads (Sydney). Dropped one and caught one big one. No cuttlefish, but lots of cuttlefish”bones” floating (my birds love them). Only one kingie back inside, no snapper, but plenty of big Trevors and XOS Yakkas (nice sushi) and a few slimie mackerel.

Coming  through the heads we stopped to drop a line, noticing fisheries boat checking other fisho’s and expected they would come over, which they did. All was good, but they fined two other boats for undersized fish, which was encouraging. If you never do the wrong thing, you never have to worry. “The Revs” and stevo’s licences all in date and being Koori, I don’t need one (about the only advantage of being a 1st Australian).

A great day with mates and a few fish to boot (probably worst day on kings this year).

Great work! Love it when a few raiders get together. We had fisheries check us on Friday too! No drama, but they ruined our drift 😫
Good to see them out and about though. 

cheers scratchie!!!

Enough fish for a feed or 2, and you beat the storm that is on the way.
