Headed out friday afternoon in a mad rush to beat sundown. Anchored up just before sunset and managed a few good snapper and pearlies before they shut down. Woke up in the morning after an ordinary sleep in 15kt nw. Took the snapper a while to get going but by 730am we where full. Also caught a large cod that was released after pulling 3 different sets of hooks out of it.

Hi Dean, we had a great trip to Fraser but only fished saturday night and sunday morning for a couple of hours. Fished in close near Indian Head to get out of the wind and current. We only got 1 red but got a heap of big grassies and pearlies and moses. Caught 12 cod to 50kg which became a big of a pest on saturday night so we stopped fishing because we were worried they were not surviving. Woke up and caught some good spanish macks before the 100 nautical mile trip home.
