    Noosa Spaniard

    with a break in the rain this morning me and a mate had to take the opportunity to get out to try for a mackeral.
    got out the bar easily right on high tide and headed out to some close reefs.
    trolled around for a couple hours for nothing until i scored 2 little kingys one on each treble of my lure. they where only around 60 cm but they managed to rip the wire out of my x rap. went back to the same spot to try have some fun on the kingys on slugs and plastics and first drift a hooked something ok. first thought was kingy but after a solid little fight on light snapper gear a spaniard comes in the boat. it went just under 90cm and got it on a 20 gram raider.
    pretty happy to get our target, 1st of the season for me

    no wire on the slug, got lucky. although when spinning for spotties with 20-25gram slugs i dont use wire and havent lost to many.
    the colour X-rap is BSRD

    There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot

    I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges

    Great stuff! In the new boat too! Nice to see you blooded it with a decent fish!

    Much surface action around?

    thanks guys,
    theres a few mac tuna around on the surface, mostly small ones though. we got a few around 5 kg and they definitely blooded the boat

    Judging from the photos I think I know which boat you're in. You sure have put in some hours over the last week.
    I've just got home from the annual week at Culgoa.

    You're right - same outboard diff boat.

    After the week of weather we just had I'm glad I left the boat at home this time.
    Just bream on bread and whiting on yabbies out the back of the unit with the kids this year. I took the canoe and paddled a bit but didn't even drag a lure - must be finally learning to r e l a x...
