Weekend fishing - Nov 12-13th
Doesn't look like the weather gods are playing too nice this weekend:
Bom Says:
Saturday: E/SE winds 10/15 knots becoming S/SW 20/25 knots in the afternoon. Seas below 1.0m rising to 2.0m. Swell to 1.5m.
Sunday: S/SE winds 15/20 knots tending S/SW 20/30 knots in the afternoon.
Ocean Outlook doesn't say much better:
Sat 12th SW 2.5m 2.5m 2.5m 12 12 12 ESE 8-12kn SW 16-20kn SSW 16-20kn Sun 13th WSW 2.5m 2.5m 2.5m 13 13 13 SSE 16-20kn SSW 16-20kn S 16-20kn
Might be a small window on saturday morning, but doesn't look crash hot apart from that:
Maybe a bash in the river might be worth it, heard the tailor are almost around the lower yahct clubs and the mulloway should be in blackwall.. If you do get into some, make sure you keep the frames and either contact me or one of the researchers out at murdoch so they can continue their analysis..
We were originally heading to two rocks on monday for a fish.. but looks like we might change to go to the south side of rotto and try some jigging or trolling for tuna.. will see how the weather goes..
Let us know if you have any plans or manage to get out for the weekend..

Went out in a mates tinny
Went out in a mates tinny off ocean reef. What a perla of a morning weather wise, Sea breeze came in about 11 but was like a pond till then.
Just got home now, unfortunatly only with a feed of sand whiting. But before that i managed a undersize dhu and small black arse and a BIG black ray.
Mate did well with a 50cm black arse and a 60cm dhu. Saw a few sambos follow a wrasse up but couldnt get a bait in front of em in time. Is it best to anchor for sambos and float say a whole whiting down? We were drifting(a dead slow drift at that tho) We tried leaving a whiting out the back with a small sinker for the rest of that drift but to no avail.
Oh well, nice day to be out on the water and some nice views around scarborough beach on the drive home... if you get my drift ;)

Sweeet
hahaha, nice one mate.. certainly love the coastal drive, especially on the pre-summer days.. :))
sounds like you had a pretty good morning fish wise.. can't complain with that.. i swear that the weather reports are correct about 35% of the time..
i personally like being anchored for sambo's, with a good berley trail.. but if they have any size to them, then the first thing they usually go for is the anchor rope.. hard to pick really..

Nice
Where'd you find these shizz? Was thinking of heading out rotto way for some jigging on Monday, but if theres some light tackle monsters in close, then whats the point heading miles out to sea.. unless its a secret spot, which i'll understand.. :)

Report
Didn't go this morning.. way too windy.. went for a troll in the river yesterday and got a few small hits but nothing serious.. the wind chop didn't help much.. might have to go down to point resolution when the tailor fire up a bit more..
The fellas get back from billfish bonanza tonight, got a feeling that the comp would almost have been blown out yesterday.. Will post up a report soon..
