Ocean reef 30 - 35 metres

Found some good ground and some decent bait balls but only caught a Sgt Baker, skippy, wrasse and a (released) cod of an unknown type.

 Nice shots, spewin nothing decent was below it. I came across a massive baitball yesterday from 13-33m and 50-80 metres long but never got a hit. Saw couple big marks below it but they weren't interested. 

 

Boats will be all over those coordinates soon ;)

 It's only the bait balls that have the co-ords showing.  good luck to them if they're still there now or tomorrow.

 We were out later than expected thanks to my deckie going to the wrong boat ramp  and spending some time unsuccessfully looking for my occy pots....

The run out wide at about 11 am was great.  then the seabreeze hit with a whack and we trolled back in at a speed that we didn't get wet 

only thing missing was the fish (and the occy pots)

Weather sounds like yesterday. Especially your comment about nearly using release weight as a sinker. I had a 24oz dangling way behind me. Good deckies are hard to find

Baitfish

When you see colour change from red to a deeper brown or black with it widening out, then you are getting on to hard bottom.
What you have up there is flat bottom with baitfish and weed, nothing that I would get excited about.
