Tammy took bananas on board

[Frank OO]

My dearest Daughter Tammy has been posted up from Sydney to Brisbane and we had been waiting for a good day to go out and troll for some Wahoo.

Little did I know that she had taken bananas on board together with a cup of tea and the whole kitchen. Anyway a long story short. We trolled about three hours around Hutchies and Wide Caloundra and finally caught one Dolphin Fish.

Funny, What is that stuff on the sounder. Could that be loads of Amberjack and Snapper.

Bugger the bananas and let’s cast some plastics around and see what happens. The bloody things were everywhere. Got blown away about ten times and caught about six.

[Fishing_Freddy]

Hi Frank it looks like a good day out and plenty of fish caught by all. If only the weather would be nice so I can get a chance to get out
Ken:D

[Frank OO]

Hi Adam,

The Bay was very sloppy yesterday morning but there were lots of LTs' around.

Harley000,

There was quite a bit of Southerly current and a 15-17knot North Easerrly wind which made fishing a bit difficult.

Gee Frank,
wish I had "bad luck" like that...must be using the wrong bananas?!?:-/

Did Tammy get the big AJ on the S10 or something heavier?

Cheers
Blue

[Frank OO]

Hi Blue,

We used two rods for soft plastics. One is Big Bertha which is a very much beefed up version of the S10 and the other is a Loomis. Both are great rods and both make you work really hard.

Big Ren,

I am always singing. That's why we didn't get anything last week. You wouldn't let me sing.

Death Ship,


I was using a 1oz Jig head with a 7" Gulp Plastic Electric Chicken

do you realise how much money these reports are costing me in gulps and jigheads and braid and............................................... ...................................

Some very nice fish there Frank,

Aside from that some of the photos are fantastic, the ones with a sweeping expanse of sky looks amazing.

As for bananas on board a boat.

If the bananas are in a banana cake, they then become very lucky....works for me! I make very good banana cake...so I'm told.

Well done.

Hi Roz,

That's a good enough reason for you to come up to Bribie. I love Banana Cake.

I will be heading up to 1770 on the 23 March if the weather holds.

Sometimes you just fluke good photos. I do love the clouds almost as much as the fish.

Frank OO

[roz]

"I do love the clouds almost as much as the fish" I don't believe that for one minute!!!

the pic of Tammy holding the AJ, also the snapper pic are lovely.

I will put you on my list of 'Very Needy' banana cake recipients Frank.

[Scalem]

What model Loomis are you using?

Trying to make up my mind between an Egrell, Loomis and Nitro Godzilla..

[Donnie]

Good Stuff Guys!!
Funny the bannana story comes up as i was off shore last Sat having a great time (contrary to the weather report) with Swano and Damo pulling in Snapper, Sweeties, Kingies etc as well as getting burnt by some big speed machines. I felt hungry and grabed for my bag of fruit to have a munch only to discover a "BLOODY BANNANA". I was horrified and and quickly went to off load it overboard, but being hungry i decided to eat it anyway. We had a great days fishing and the boat didnt miss a trick so "BANNANAS BAD LUCK" ???.
I could not believe that a bannana made it into my lunch bag but i couldnt blame my wife as "I PACKED IT MYSELF"

Hi 3Vs,

The Loomis was a GL2 LR 905s/7'6 Heavy - Moderate Action 12 - 25lbs 1 - 2 1/2 oz.

Great rod but I can cast a minimum of 25 meters further with my Egrell using a 1 oz jig head.

[3Vs]

Thanks mate.

I am leaning towards the S10-H.

Good fishing.
