bobthelob2341 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Headed out early this morning to Port Hacking in search of some more squid and a kingfish or two. Tried some shallow spots in the Port but the water quality was too dirty and decided to push out deeper for some squid. Flicked out some hardbodies and trolled towards Jibbon Bommie, and picked up 2 bonnie’s for bait. Came out to the marks and the current was pushing fast, but marked some nice fish on the sounder so decided to fish it with fresh bonito slabs. Drifted down on a 4/0 hook and light sinker with 14lb leader, eventually found its way into the mouth of a 63cm snapper. New pb for me and went well on bream gear, after that we got a couple rat kings and the sweep showed up so we went home. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, didn’t go around lilli pilli but towards Gunnamatta Bay it was all pretty greenish brown. Good luck tomorrow if you’re heading out. 7 hours ago, masterfisho7 said: Nice snapper top effort Cheers mate 5 hours ago, Rebel said: Top report. Well done. Top Snapper.

No squid today, the rain from this week mucked up the water, and the currents were ripping so fast I couldn’t keep a squid jig down even with a large sinker in 15m.
