Left sunday for our annual Breaksea Spit trip, got as far as Gympie, phone rings, Geoff here mate, have gen set probs trips off:'( shite.
Pull to side of road just out of Gympie, make numberous calls to all those coming stretched out from Brisssy, boys trips off.:-[
Shite this far nth, taken week off, not going home empty handed. take my passenger back to brissy.
Make some calls to skippers i no at rainbow, first off Tony Stewart, mate have a couple desperate for a fish, ????????.
Yeah sure Monday ok can get you on, you need a bed for the nite, i answer bloody oath, done deal.;D
Phone around all those heading up, anyone still want a fish, ended up with 4.
Back up to rainbow for the night, and down to the bowls club for a session to drown the sorrows after 360 kl travelled that arvo.:o
Also make another call to the Farmer Fisho Ivan, mate need a fish, what you up too, he replies, not fishing at present, shite i said, desperate mate, so he agrees to take us out on tuesday, done deal.;D
Up early next morn, and onboard the 32 ft cougar cat, and out through the bar.
Things quite for awhile, but a steady stream of fish filling the esky, back in late arvo and down to the bowls club again.
Next morning pickup up by Ivan in his 7.5m sailfish powered by 2 x 15o hondas, out through fishermens gutter, a short cut through the bar, pick up some livies and off we go.
Few big bust offs to start the day, then settleed in to fill the esky, plenty of small reds, but a steady supply of snaps, pearlie, maori cod, tuskies and others.
Ended up with another good feed, spotted a few whales, then back in for the trip home.
small taste below of some catches.
