Yowie Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Was heading out with my mate to Bate Bay this arvo, but he bailed so I headed out myself this morning. Plenty of spikies at first, then a couple of just legal blue spots until I drifted out a bit past Kurnell, where I found a couple of better ones. When I hit deeper water, the rig was bitten off above the swivel, no bite so probably a jacket. Fortunately no others. Only 1 fish in the deeper water, so headed back in a bit and found a couple more, then headed home with my limit. The biggest at 54cm. Early on, the wind and swell was short and sharp from the N/E, left over from yesterday. Wind will be chopping it up again later on. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for that sling shot, I have a R.P.G. in my boat. 7 hours ago, Rebel said: Well done. Good feed there. Thank you. 28 minutes ago, Pickles said: Great report - as always.

Too dangerous with ganged hooks and flatties swinging their heads about if there is a double hook up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Nice catch of blue spots. Thanks Bruce. Had planned to head out with my mate on Saturday arvo, only day he could go, but he bailed out, so I headed out myself knowing the weather would be no good for a few days. 4 hours ago, Crabstar said: Well done Yowie!
