With a day off and a fair forecast Mat, Brett the old fella and meself decided a trip to Wide Caloundra was in order. First drop was around 5:30 with not much happening til about 6ish. Was slow going even with good shows on the sounder but we managed a few. Mat and the old fella were unlucky on a couple of good fish. Highlight of the morning came whilst retrieving what felt like a pan size pearlie suddenly grew a lot larger. Did'nt think the 10-15 ugly stick was going to survive the tussle but she did and up came a 24kg AJ. The wind dropped out later in the morning as seen in the newly accessorised pic of Mats 1750.

Benny- Whole pilly on three ganged 6o's and an 8 ball. But the AJ took a liking to what would have been a pearlie.
