Bate bay 16/12

[Crabstar]

Afternoon fishos.

Ventured out to Bate bay this morning. 
Conditions were meant to be 1m sea 1m swell with 6 Knott northerly winds, I’d say it was 1m sea and the odd 2m swell pushing through. And some 15/20knotts at times.
 

anywho pushed out to the 60m mark and move back in intervals. 55m 50m 45m 40m 35m , lots of small flathead around but managed 8 sea flathead. 
 

Wind started to pick up as usual and I was chucking my guts up called it a day, did head to spot x for crabbies but the JetSkis was beyond stupid.

 

back home, cleaned the fish and had a scrub 1pm

 

finally a feed!

Good work finding the fish crabstar!

Looks like you covered a few different depths.

Quite a bit of effort, however, enough for a feed or 2. The blue spots have been scarce for a while. Hopefully they are not being overfished.

Nice work Crabstar, you persevered with different depths and got yourself a great feed. I love to see fish sitting on ice, they'll taste great!

Nice stuff mate, good feed.

Well done @Crabstar- always good to keep moving till you find the fish and a nice bag of Flatties to prove the point. Maybe all the burley you provided helped bring them around (no worse feeling than being seasick).
