I had a school of about a dozen fish just swimming arround the boat for about half an hour. Didnt have my usual everything but the kitchen sink tackle boxes on board as I had 4 people aboard. Only had the bottom bashing gear and couldn't tempt them with the squid and mulies we had onboard as bait.

Pretty to watch thou. Guess they were maybe 70/80 cm fish.

Wasn't local thou. 70 meters of water out from Greenhead.
