Isaac Ct Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 As per usual, the morning ritual of getting up at 4:30 and launching at Yowie Bay at 5:30 was upheld as I decided to pick up a mate from Wally's Wharf, plenty of space to spread out on the boat. Headed to the usual spot in Gooseberry Bay and immediately started to pull in small tailor and snapper. Had a massive school of whitebait under the boat for ages but couldn't get the salmon or tailor to hit the lures or baits. Plenty of small tarwhine also before the big trev came along. Measured at 42cm, caught on peeled prawns. Also pulled up a Gurnard but decided to release as it was only lip hooked. Then travelled up the arm and moored next to the bigger boats, I usually find they do the berleying for you. First drop and pulled out a nice bream, 30cm and no chance of survival. A yakka school showed up so kept a couple for next trips bait. More snapper and tailor before we moved to the 4 knot marker to pick up some leatherjackets for the neighbours. We managed 3 nice Yellowfin jackets then caught, a six-spined jacket, a gunters wrasse, a weed whiting, a small blackfish, a cuttlefish on pillies and a little flattie. Not a bad day at all, 14 species in one day, that has gotta be some sort of record. Cheers Isaac CT 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, when I was young my dad had a 600 page book on the fish and freshwater and saltwater Australia so I try my best sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
