Bramble sunday

[cooky]

that sucks - I wanted to go out, but too much work on

will be that way for the next few weeks - i bet the weather is great too

[Leo_N.]

Went out for a 2 boat reef trip on sunday. There was absolutely no run in the tide, so wasn't expecting a great deal of fish. That theory was blown out the window somewhat, with 21 trout between four of us, and various other reef species thrown in. The weather glassed out by the end of the day to make it one to remember.

Don't seem to be able to post pics...oh well...

[Brenno]

sounds like you had a great trip.

hope you can get the photo problem worked out.

[Cloud_9]

the pic posting is a site problem i think im have ing the same problem.
small pics are too large by a rediculas amount!
there was site maintenance today and last night from what i can figure.
steve will have it sorted fairly quickly i think.

Love Bramble when it fires. The lagoon is awesome to dive though not to pretty to look at. Usually full of trout and plenty of white tip reefies. Just interested Leo did you guys catch heaps of red throat emperor that were just undersize?

[Leo_N.]

No redthroat at all. Previous few trips have caught 1-2 redthroat but all big ones. We also went to Trunk, but was down to slabs of some big ugly sweetlip that someone speared as bait so caught nothing at all there.

Nice day.

I took my 4.3m tinny, along with another 6m boat. The rest of the boys were happy to let me power along, while they rose in 6m luxury.

Big McGough with some of the catch

some nice blue bone there!

[Leo_N.]

They are not actually the wrasse that most call bluebone, but a parrotfish (these guys have white bones). Similar type of fish, and good on the chew, but don't take baits. The spearo's got the parrots (I had a bit of coral on my hook once, but no parrotfish decided to eat it).

Thanks. Still nice
