queensland goldcoast charter - 9th Aug 07

[username_taken]

Work sent me out on a charter boat for my birthday, only told me about it the day before.

We put in at southport and went out the spit and found some reefs out a way. Caught easily 40+ Tailor between 6 people on the charter ( all on ganged pillies ). We had some livies out the back, and soon enough one started screeming. As birthday boy I had the privilege of reeling in the first big one.

Pulled in a big Mack Tuna, got over 30 steaks out of him.

Later another Tuna was pulled up, then after a change of reefs up came a 4.5foot Cobia!

I'm not really sure, I doubt it would have been more than 15km though.

A good day fishing and a good boss to boot! Buy yourself a casket ticket;)

Happy birthday too...

Yeah we had some Cobia for lunch on friday .. tasted great.

Mike, a friend I took with me ate some of the Tuna on thursday night, both as sashimi and bbq'd steaks. He said it was awesome.

The Taylor I shared a few around, and froze the rest for bait/berley on my Harvey Bay trip in Sept.
