Arvo session Wide/Cal

[indy]

G'day all

Happy new year

My brother Todd and I headed up to Mooloolabha yesterday leaving my house at around 12.30 in the afternoon with plans on doing an overnighter at ever the barwon banks or wide caloundra depending on the weather conditions.

On arriving at the ramp the wind seemed to be blowing around 15knots of easterly and didn't really have high hopes of getting out to the banks and when we turned the corner out of the harbour the desicion was made to go to wide caloundra as it is 10 mile closer.

Conditions were not the best and we sat on only 15 knots the hole way out. On arriving at the spot the sounder came alive with fish probably the best show i have seen out there and as soon as a bait was dropped we where on to the snapper. We bagged out fairly quickly with the better fish coming on as the sun was dropping.

We also picked up a few pearlies and a trag and moses perch and with the esky looking fairly good and the conditions starting to get worse as the night went on we pulled the pick and headed home to be back at the boat ramp by 10 pm.

First fishing trip for the new year and quite happy with the result with plenty of snapper out there throwing alot of good fish back.


cheers pete...

How did you go up there lippa me and a few mates were thinking of heading up that way sounds like we made the right decision.

Did tony put you up for accomodation, did you get any good muddy's there seems to be a few good ones around at the moment down the pine have a look in the estuary section tomorrow i'll do a post.

It would be good to pick your brain about stanage

cheers pete...

Great catch there mate, trips like that make it all worth while and you forget about the bad ones. I see you had the emergeny survival at sea kit.

Good stuff. Wayne

if ya still got my number pete give me a call!!!!! your boat would have been ok to go out in, mine was just a tad too small. the pro crabbers gave the close area a real touch up before the "ametures" arrived for chrissy holidays!!! still manageda few but. plenty of big jew being caught, but we had our minds squarely focused on the esky by that stage!!!!!!

cheers
