queensland The bay day {pics added}

[Malcolm]

I'll try not bore you but went out today from Cleveland with Mopar Kev. Conditions were about as good as they get apart from everyone else thought so too.

Went over near Amity to a crack at parrot on the tide change but no go. Kev got a ray and almost i lost all my line to a suspected ray.

Then went to Peal for some under size Squire and I caught some Bone-fish looking thing ,Kev will add photo later.

Then to pelican banks for nothing and back to The wrecks at Peal unersize Moses Perch.

Bloody good day despite the fish.

Having some nice cold drinks now

ps we did see a couple of bait bust ups but they were gone too quick for us.

im hanging out to do an overnighter at peel very soon. ive had some awesome fishing at night moving around peel in winter

[mottly crew]

i too was out on the bay with everyone else left vic point at 7.00am and anchored at the red buoy at coochi and landed a 28cm bream, then ventured over to peel for under size squire then to the pelican banks for more under size grassies, then back over to potts point and land a small barracuda thne headed back to vic point for home. all up caught 8 undersize fish and 1 28cm bream let it live for another fight. what a nice day it's been.

I couldnt find the snapper but i heard of a few bagging out.

I stayed at peel last night and was a bit blowy but there were fish happening got one good but surprising one that i will report on later. Id be back out there tonight if i had a choice.

If was a splendid day out despite the fish. Same bait/hook/sinker, Malc smacked 'em up, I defintely did not! Beautiful bay conditions, pretty sloppy near the bar, as reported. Malc used a "Mick Fillet Top Tip" involving a bucket and a toilet seat...... :sick: Fish shut down after that.....

Anyway. Here's the mystery Whiting looking thing;

Big thanks to Malcolm for the trip out, the boat is an ideal bay boat for 2, loving the 4 stroke (no 2 stroke fume headache for me!) but would benefit from an indoor Dunny.......

I think they are rare down here?

[Bommie]

no not really rare just hard to find and easily spooked, have caught quite a few in a special spot

well done guy's nice fish

[jeff f]

malcom, people pay thousands of dollars to fly to isolated places all over the pacific to chase these things with guides, mostly on fly

they are one of the holy grail type fish, rare, hard to find,even harder to hook, and you caught one on on bait in brisbane :whistle:

[big al]

years ago caught a couple up bribie passage :woohoo: didnt know what they were put up a good fight though..

[ChrisC]

heck yeah nice boney

[Keen-as-fisho]

Thats awesome, hopefully they are abundant

[Carter]

[Carter]

[tikki169]

Holly HELL, never knew there where Bone in the bay. Excellent catch. SOme people cover many miles and Thousands of Dollars chasing them on fly and still come up with nothing.

[Do$tylz]
