By time I got the kids going & getting some bait on the water about 9am never been there before took it easy & motored over to out passed North reef, plenty of boats for mid week so just found a spot away from everyone between the post & the green marker dropped the pick burley over all good away from everyone, had the kids lines set up & over, now to set up mine, young daughter (9)calls out I think I have one!! ok ok just bring it in thinking some little thing!! but It's pulling too hard ok ok got the plug leaned over without looking loosened the drag & so called plug makes a runner holy crap!! looked around & the tip of the rod in the water and the girls has a fight on her hands, well she's got the idea dragging the fish in & by herself & the son nets the big bream good one baby maybe there's some nice fish around here?? baited up & over the side back to rigging my up & than the young fellows on bloody hell, he only has a light rod & after a while brings in a really nice bream also, now that sorted rig my & maybe get into it don't you love taking the kids fishing, no sooner than 2 minutes some clown motors over sits 10 foot behind us making all the noise possible in the burley trail & all the bite's gone I watch this guy for a while getting snagged every throw & busting he line off everytime tool head, anyway had time to rig up we were floating our bait with little sinkers if at all nothing!! after awhile tool head see a boat about 100 metres away catching fish pulls the pick up & bolts over to the there boat same thing in behind them & starts fishing, ok we started getting fish again and a big Snapper which turned into a stinger ray on the way up bummer!! anyway here comes tool head again run straight across our lines & proceeds to fish even closer!! I asked him if he wants to join us in the boat as well seeing he was close enough & the fish went off the chew after all the throwing the pit in banging & carrying on like a pork chop, I couldn't work out if was a dumb ass or mentally disturbed!! something wasn't right!! anyway had a nice little bucket of bream nice day & called it a day, firied the boat up I I went out so I didn't upset any one fishing sounded out a bit wider & found some new ground ok kids one more go at it drifting this time & get this this tool heads comes out & starts to fish with in casing distants again, ok asked the kids to block there ears & gave him a spray funny he bolted whats with these people?? anyway back to ramp cleaned the fish & getting boat all packed up & one of the the over boat guys come up & said that bloke in the Yellow glass boat was a pain hey!! he gave the shit's to a few boats as the same as us.
