Did the annual easter run to HB, this time without my boat as my mate has just got him self a nice southwind. We headed out Friday night for the change of tide only prob is that we had no GPS :-/ and a very old sounder on its way out, the plan was to fish close to the Artifical with only the land and markers as a refrence point.
Anchor down the night was looking pretty poor with a few solid runs only to end up with the odd squire undersize , grinners >:( and a couple of toothy critters, we then pulled the pin.
We headed out Sunday afternoon again to fish the change this time the bite was good and better sized squirey snapper comming on board, none were kept as we were hoping to pull some larger sized Snapper, with only a short window to fish as dinner was waiting at home we pulled the pin again>:( Its a pitty as i am sure a few more hours we would have come up with some good size snapper. Sorry no photoes. I did see Smithy on the way to the ramp looked like he had been out for the day.
