Basil D Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Organized a trip down south with Chris (Pongrass18ftr) to catch some snapper, This place can be a nightmare to catch these fish except for a few fishos who regularly catch them down that way, to these guys I take my hate of to you up at 3am to organize the boat , water, lunch, coffee, ice bait and all the gear needed and off we went. Got to a spot i got given and it was not on, I drove the boat around sounding out some bait and thats when started dropping, it was 65 meters and to our surprise was visited by a whale who wanted to check us out and was with us for 5 minutes , just popping his head out of the water to breath & look at us and just drop down below the boat again, he really looked playful and never seen anything like it but wow and thank you for coming over, something we will never forget , once it left we continued to fish and we got a few, packed up by midday as the winds come through, headed home to clean the fish and the boat , enjoy the video of the whale 12
Yowie Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Good bag of reds again Basil, though you can keep the mowies. Lucky to have a whale pop up next to the boat, does not happen very often.
Welster Posted September 19, 2023 Posted September 19, 2023 What a day! You wont forget that one any time soon. You sure know how to find the fish. I’d have trouble keeping those pants white anywhere and no chance out fishing 🤣. 1
