queensland 3 yak fisho's clean up at the blinker

[tomca]

Henry wanted to take the boat out, Terry wanted to yak off Caloundra, so we compromised and boated offshore. The S.S.Do was launched from Golden Beach for its first offshore trip before sunrise and there was already a line up at the ramp Thankfully everyone was on the water quick smart and we headed straigh out to the blinker to bounce some plastics off the bottom and possibly chase pelagics. Sunrise was lovely, apart from this ship dumping a huge brown slick with black sludge all through it :ohmy:

Henry was the first to dodge the dreaded donut, but was a little too excited for my liking

I caught a tiddler next

Then we noticed a bit of this

and the chase was on.

We cast some 25g slugs into the bust ups and even had double hookups

Henry with his bream gear was getting a big touch up

and he landed the biggest fish of the day

Terry caught a few, a bonito and we all dropped a few too.

Sore wrists all round and we headed behind Brays for some reefies, but none were found, so into the passage and we downsized our gear and second cast of a Squidgy stealth prawn I had a flathead dinner sorted Then back to the ramp and time for a feed.

nice one guys

was there any mackerel out there?

as i was coming home from my fish today in the passage, i drove around the headland

and noticed school's of fish everywhere, around the blinker area, and wandered if they where mackerel. i think i'm gonna get up early in the morn and head out there to throw some slugs around. wheather is good enough to get my tinnie out there :dry:

nice job...I hope you got the name of the ship and rang the port authorities straight away...we get a bad name from them for fishing near channels , to close to wharfs etc..about time we started doing what we should - reporting those that really do wrong as well !!...not to mention it was probably harmful to our environment and they were doing it illegally , or at best , they might not have been aware...

Nice one guys, looks like awesome fun with the light gear

[Keen-as-fisho]

Good session guys. There was a bit of brown sludge down where we were of point lookout, strady, and the current was coming strong from the north.

How typical, Tom and Midget back in the nursery AGAIN Don't get sucked in by these 2 roosters Henry they are a bad bad influence.

At least noone needed to hook a fish thru the bum Al!

All fish were caught at the blinker actually. The water was so clear at Brays we could clearly see the bottom in 9m of water

man what an awesome day. Too bad the reefies weren't out to play but the tuna made up for it

Ferg - don't think there were any mackeral... at least we didn't hook up to one anyway nor did we see one breach. Just bonito and mac tuna.

[Terry H]

Mackeral: with the number of casts we had, if there was a mackeral I'm sure we would have hooked up to one!

I believe it was just a lot of real fussy Mack Tuna with some Bonito thrown in.

Really need to match your lure presentation with what bait they're hitting.

[Terry H]

Oh, Al.. wasn't it this time last year you were having fun hooking into the jellybeans on light gear??
