Pelican Pt. Rocks Sunrise Monday.

Nice  & Cool.

Never been here before. Something new.

Tried a couple of lures. Nothing.

Switched to bait rod. Bingo nice Bream.

A few more undersize. Released.

Caught two more Bream. All around 34cm. Puppy will be happy.

Last cast & wham. The reel went off the planet.

After a good fight landed a Black Drummer around 35cm. He was agro.

Let him go. I like fish that fight. Deserve their freedom. ( IMO )

Time for breakfast at the Norah Head Cafe. Bacon & Egg Rolls are faboulous.

Great spot.

I remember fishing there 50 years ago, wading out to the distant reef at a very low tide and seeing a mate disappear into a pothole, only his hat and rod tip above the water! From memory, the NSW record tailor was caught there and my PB rock blackfish landed there too.

Though I live at The Entrance, I only go there now and again but am never disappointed.

It doesn't handle swell over about a metre or so well for safe fishing, but, if it is to big for the rocks, the beach on the southern side has a nice protected corner worth a throw. If too big there in a southerly, try the northern side of Norah Head.

Well done Rebel, always got something for the puppy.

Well done mate. Pound for pound, those drummer would outfight anything that swims I reckon.

Another good day out. Those drummer either come in after a good fight, or reef you in a short time.

Great when you can land a drummer - so often they get the upper hand.
