Left Scarby at 10pm Wednesday night for a late night fish and an early start at Hutchies. Drifted the ledges off Bulwer and Cowan for a couple of hours during the night, nothing really to speak of, a few cod and a few big slateys.
Got out to a mark at the northern end of Hutchies, first cast resulted in a 5kg snap, he went hard and took the placky rather high up in the water column. Continued to catch a variety of fish... Maori cod, sweeties and other dribs and drabs, and got done by a submarine after a solid 30 min tussle, have no idea what it was but it was big and strong and I was buggered afterwards after fishing it with a heavy drag on 50lb braid.
All fish caught on plastics, in water depths between 25 and 35m. Sorry no phots as yet.'
