well all has been good so far, two trips in 2 days :)

GC on Friday was great,
Went on a fishing charter, got lucky, only 7 people and we had the biggest boat from their fleet.

First fish of the day was a marlin, 150kg+
It got away though, but was good to see a marlin this time in winter.
we got about 5 yellow fin tuna, and about 7-8 mack tuna(all macks released)
also bout 10 tailor, all weren’t that big but still tasted good. ;)
All for a half day it was great.

Outside Moreton bay on Saturday,
Well started off the day with great success in the livey's, but only to find a broken live bait tank, We got to deep tempest with 2 still alive from 20, poor bugga's.
No luck for us at deep tempest, few squire and sargent bakers :-/
Headed back to hutchies and stopped at a spot, produced nothing for awhile, until the sun went down, floating ganged mullet fillets down sent the snapper and pearlies mad, if u didn’t get a hit on the way down u would once on the bottom. there were 3 onboard we all bagged out, all squire under 38 were thrown back, only 2 went 38 rest were over 40. 3 pearlies, biggest went 47, big pearly, and 2 golden trevally, we then headed home.

Both days the weather was superb, couldn’t have gotten any worse.
And now have a trip to the banks hopefully, on Friday weather permitting(might be overnighter as well)

No piccy's, forgot camera on charter and filleted fish before we realised we hadn't takes a picture.
