After the blow out at the resent M&G at 1770 , I decided to Headed back up and give it another go over the week of 7th to 14 th May .
We had 3 starters Ausfish DALEPRICE ( Dale ) , a mate from work ( John ) and myself .
As we were getting closer to the trip the weather reports were terrible 20 -25 S-SE and it looked that it may hang around all week , we decided to still give it a go , hoping that it may drop out later in the week .
With the wind and swell hanging around most of the week , we finally got an opportunity on our last day ( Friday 13 th ). The forecast was 15 Knts SW on a 1.5 meter sea .
Heading out the bar wasnt too bad , but as there was still a swell running ,there were still some rollers breaking across the bar enterance .
Headed out about 38 k. to Lou's ( Reel-Job ) secerate spot .
Thanks Lou , we ended up with a good catch with a mixed catch of 42 fish reefies . Most were just average size , with the best being 1 x 4.6 KG Coral Trout ( by me ) & a 2.6 kg Parrot ( by John ) and a couple of good Cod .
Dale held his own , catching various bits & pieces , including a couple of Reds that couldnt quite make the magic 55 cm .
The trip back was pretty ordinary , the SW wind was breaking the top of the 1.5 to 2 meter ground swell .
Punching strait into it we could only average 11-12 knts for the first 20 k of the trip , with the conditions good once you got back closer to Round Hill .
All up a good day out , good feed ,and being the last day of our trip made us forget about the poor conditions for the rest of the week .
