That’s strange. We’ve always caught good size ones in the Crookhaven and Basin. My diary shows that when I still had my boat we’d average 12 good ones per summer.

They were a traditional Sunday breakfast in my family.

Yeah it's funny, there's plenty there, but not big ones, mind you, I only drift around waiting for the crab traps, so maybe if I really gave it a go, there might be better ones?

Well Done, and a good catch after what sounds like a challenging start. Always good to come home with a feed

Thank you. The fish took some time to wake up, like some fishos on this site. 🤣

Thank you. Better than last week when the fish tried to avoid me, and succeded.  😂

Some times fishing the Hacking in shallow water, I have pulled up flounder smaller than a tea cup saucer, so there are little ones at times. I have watched them follow up a drifting nipper, and keep smacking at it until hooked.

Nice haul yowie!

good mix of fish mate. At least you’ve been out - wind’s been out in force on all my days off.

Thank you. The wind is a pain again, and it is kicking up a swell outside.

Solid variety platter Dave!

I'm looking forward to getting back on the water before the Christmas/New year mayhem! Might have to start launch the tinny at midnight:)

Thank you Rob. The mayhem has started (but not today, too wet and windy) although you would most likely have the place to yourself. 🤣
