Hacking fires late

[Mass]

Headed out Saturday and I was greeted by an unusually high frequency of waves rolling through the Hacking. Fished the main channel for 3 Leather jacket and 1 bream. There was an abundance  of leather jacket present in the channel causing baits to disappear often without feeling a bite. This resulted in a move to the flats around 11am and that's when things changed. Ended up with 36 fish, 26 of which were Whiting. At least 4 fish over 40cm with the best going 43cm and very fat. It was a long day with a 3pm finish mainly due to the late high tide. Goes to show you don't always need to get up early to have a great days fishing.

Good to see you and your mate do well on the Whiting, last time I had a similar session to this was also during fairly large swell coming through the heads. Big swell must turn the fish on the bite.

Hi Larkin. Fished with Nippers. No burley. Just lights lines on a good drift.
