Ron (megafish71), Moffy and I went out off Port Douglas in Ron's boat Saturday arvo. The SE blew up in the arvo changing our plans to fish wide for some decent Reds. The wind died off at night but the fish only had one major bite until we pulled up stumps around 2 in the morning. On one rock we scored 7 Spangled Emperor and 2 Red Emperor but only ended up with 20 fish. Would have been nice to get one more spot like that but for our standards 20 fish was a biut light on.
Ended up with 3 Red Emperor in total, half a dozen trout and a nice Rosy Job fish as part of the bag.
I used a PE tackle fly for the first time, thanks to Vertico for the flies he gave me.
Chinaman fish love them!! I did score a small Spangled on it with some fresh flesh bait but no reds this time.
Ron also Christened his new Black hole 250 g rod and it went well.
