Father & Son Moments

 Any of you guys been fortunate to experience one of those father/son moments......it was one of those days when the weather was perfect and the little fella was up for a fish..we were fishing a drift of around 30mtrs targeting snapper and sambos, we managed to catch a few along with a cuttle fish which we used for bait... from that moment on all hell broke loose..the end result was a pb sambo for young Brad almost hitting the 30kg mark along with 2 more smaller sambo and 2 quality baldchin...one of those days that will be etched in the memory for a while... I tapped up an old mate Mike Roendfeldt and he manged to get in the west with one of the pix and won halco fish of the week...check out the picture at the front of the boat...the rods at full compression and he's just holding on...quality!!

Looking forward to when my you bloke is old enough to head out for the day. Have had some great times already though chasing Squid and Whiting which he loves. He has caught some ripper squid drifting around in the dingy.
