My Kids gave me a new gaff for my birthday.(arent they a thoughtful bunch) So we went out off the cape this morning to get it dirty.
The Wahoo went 135 cm and about 11kg.
We managed a diamond trevally at hutchies on a vertcally jigged 20 g slug. He gave quite an account of himself as he was well hooked by the tail!
Had lunch at Tangalooma where the kids were having a school outing , then mucked around in the bay following the birds and managed to pick up a pair of spotties on the same old slug as always , each about 75 cm.
weather got better as day progressed. One of the best days out recently.
Cheers
Brendan
PS Everybody knows I get crook as on the boat ( not a good enough reason not to go but) . I must tell you that I have had 5 straight trips outside without even a hint since taking ET's seasickness pills. If you are struggling with the chucks give them a try! ( I have no affiliation BTW)
