P B metro fishing!
went out today with my mate ron to christen his boat after been out of the water for a coat of paint and a new engine! turned out to be my best fishing day in metro waters.first spot we got to about 8am dropped the lines and nothing but a big school of trumpeters (we know there was nothing there cause we run an underwater camera on the bottom and wath it on a tv in the cabin.)
no worries time to move motored over to another lump and bang first drop 5kg dhui on the scales. second drop bang another dhui around 4kgs didnt weigh it it was realeased much to my mates discust!he says to me might as well move there will be no more dhuis here, well boy was he wrong! next drop 6.5 kg dhui kept! determined to prove him wrong i ended up catching 7 dhuis in about 40 mins 5 were released and all went back fine as we were only in 18mts! well me mate thought stuff this and had a drop himself only to be busted off by something big (my mate ron is old school and only fishes with 80 pound handlines)it was a big fish 5 seconds after this happened bang my xoga buckles over something feirce i thought here we go this aint no 5kg dhui but alass it wasnt to be busted off in a hole i think.
oh well iwasnt fazed after all the action we deciced to move on and return again on sunday for another 2 keepers! i rerigged with some trawling gear and we proceeded to trawl for an hour with no interest, decided to look at a lump that my mate hasnt fished for a few years dropped the paternosta down again and bang double header of skippy and i continued to do that for about an hour great fun on the light rod prob caught 30 plus skippy in the 400mm range as well as around 25 pink snapper all undersize thou a cpl were real close! no matter all went back bar 10 skippy ronnie loves em also pulled 2 blackass and prob 6 rock cod for the dog! decided to call it a day as pretty exhausted and back in the pen by 4pm.
was an absolutely fantastic day the water was nice enough and wasnt to hot you couldnt wipe the smile off my face with a hammer! thanks to ronnie see u again on sun! will post some pics tomoro as to buggered from cathin fish lol bring on sunday cheers adam

Hi flash as,
Where you guys fishing in an older style game cruiser at the back of Garden Island today? If it was you we were fishing fairly close by in a blue/white cuddy cabin similar in style to a StabiCraft! We picked up a nice SBFT and dropped a shark mackie at the boat but no decent bottom fish :(

yeah i hope theres something
yeah i hope theres something around as we goin on a recon mission up hillaries way to check some spots ron hasnt fished for years in preparation for the blue water classic we never fish deeper than 25-30 meters and almost always get fish ronie hates fishin deep and after the last few trips i startin to see why there is some unreal ground in only 15 meters of water just need to know how to find it! after fishin with an underwater camera it really opens ur eyes as to how good perth really is there are a lot of great fish around! one surprise for us was that we didnt see any kg whiting which is unusual for us!
