queensland Moreton Bay Light Tackle Fun

[Angus]

Good morning,

Well with a lot going on at the moment it has been ages since I got out for a recreational flick.

With that in mind, and an acquiescing Mrs I jumped at the deckie spot offer Steve Wilkes ( @Sports) offered for Sunday to try out the new Sports Tuition boat. This boat has been surveyed and made ready to be a light tackle estuary/bay charter boat specialising in fishing around the Pin but open to any suitable locations by request. It is a lovely rig.

Anyway we headed off to Wello reef armed with light gear and plastics to try and piece together a few squire. Squire were not hard to find with over 20 boated but most seemed to fall into that 31-32cm category with a couple smaller. With fish like this coming in every minute or so with a few decent bream thrown in we were kept occupied and interested and always holding out that the bigger one would come.

Note in one of the pictures a little school mackerel. There were a few of these around with 2 landed and a couple of snip offs.

As the morning progressed it turned into a magic day getting glassier and glassier but with family duties to attend we pulled the pin at 10am.

Awesome to get out.

I think I will continue to aim to make this quick morning sessions work for me.

It was a great little session. Thanks so much to Steve from Sports Tuition. Great boat and a top bloke.

The squire hit hard and fight well for there size. I had a great time on 4lb gear. It's been great having @Angus teach me how to use soft plastics. Such a fun way to catch fish. 

I'm looking forward to many more trips at Wello and other places finding out what eats plastics.
