queensland Passage 7/4/19

[Doyley]

Fished another Toorbul monthly comp on Sunday.  Haven’t been putting up reports each month because the reports will all be the same.  Been averaging 10-12 legal fish each trip.  

Being the start of the school holidays and  nice weather there were jet skis and boats flying around everywhere.  The middle of the passage is a maze of shallow water and islands with the deeper water in some places outside the marked channel.  The sound of outboards running up sand was constant.  Jet skis fly through like they own the place, skipping over sandbars which would have boats high and dry.  It was with great delight that I watched rider after rider drag their skis off the many sandbars. 

I managed to get the boat up some skinny water to where the fished weren’t spooked. 

Ended up with 10 good whiting all over 30cm, 5 average bream and a trevally.

unfortunaley no prawns at the mouth of Hussey Ck, so didn’t venture up any further

Know how you feel about them, fishing today near Bridge they have to come as close as possible at full throtle.

Always enjoy reading your reports @Doyley - nice mixed bag there and some quality whiting by the looks of it, well done!

excellent trip there mate.  how hard do those small GT's go on whiting gear!

Some good looking whiting there @Doyley. And your kids don’t look like they are sick of fishing yet. Personally I would be happy to read a report like that every day.

I actually thought she had a small ray.  Her arms were sore by the time she got it to the boat.

How many times has she retold the story? Lots I hope.
