skipper 0...deckie 1
Don’t you hate it when you take a mate out for the first time and he out fishes you?
This happened to me on Saturday
I took my mate brocky(pic with him holding his f...ing fish) out for the first time.
We left freo at 5.30am heading for the closest fad, until i found out it had been removed for matinence, so
We tried a few other spots with the mate getting everything bar the kitchen sink and myself not even getting any bites.
I could not even get a salmon! (never seen so many boats in one spot)even with the new rod i had bought for this occasion.
The mate got the catch of the day with the dhuy just size at 52cm and a nice size blackass, as for the skipper i come home with my hole and everything in it!!!! Nil,natta,f/all
I was happy to head in at 3pm to swap my mate for my son and head out to do some prawning, i knew i would catch something there.
I might bring out a new rule for my boat...you are not allowed to out fish the skipper or you forfeit your catch,,ha.ha.ha.
1 good thing come out of the day for me and that is the new sounder works a treat, with a huge jump in detail.
I will take some pics of the 2 sounders reading the same ground next time i head out
cheers
