Pickles Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Had another blinder on the Kingies today out wide with intel from buddy Tony (Antonio) and his son Connor. Crew (Aidan) and I loaded up with little slimies and Yakkas from “Georges corner” and then straight out through the chop - better than Monday, but still not pleasant conditions. Water temp was 20 degrees, but still lots of Barracoutta around. whilst bleeding a meter + Kingie over the side I got “Sharked” (or “sealed”), not sure which, but I’m not hanging a bleeding fish over the side again. Lots of big Seriola out wide - go get ‘em Raiders. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Flatty Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Amazing day as usual Bob. I thought for a moment that you were holding the fish with YOUR HANDS in the water and felt relieved that you still had them! Of course you had more common sense than to do that, as evidenced by your tether. Still, very annoying that a superb feed was stolen. I think maybe sharks and seals may be attracted to bananas as well! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Good fish again there Bob. The reason why one should not dip their fingers overboard. Next time, add a big hook to the fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Please do not dangle your hands in the water, because that would mean PAPERWORK...and we hate doing PAPERWORK up this way!' 🤣 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bessell1955 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I was at Clifton Gardens yesterday, on a school excursion and there were two seals sunning themselves o the steps. So they may be plenty more around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big Neil Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I always wondered if seals or sharks would be tempted to take the fish that are tethered. I guess that question is answered. Another great day on the water Bob with some nice Kingie meals coming up. Hope to get back to Sydney in the next month or so, although all the planned rainfall may put the skids on that plan. bn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t been out for a month now due to big seas and strong winds. look forward to catching up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I DO HOPE that you're able to get out soon Bob. Don't want those Kingies getting TOO comfortable. Oddly enough, we haven't had most of the rain that you have, yet the river is still running a banker. Price we pay for the dams being too full. At this stage I will probably be coming to Sydney middle to end of September. Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
