queensland lazy sunday

[benno573]

hi all,

took the boat out for a spin on sunday after my hangover from saturday night had subsided :S . weather was much better than expected. headed out to harry's for a bit of a look around, only 2 other boats there. great afternoon fishing wise, caught and released 8 squire 40-45cm, kept one for the bbq :cheer: , and caught and released a heap of well legal bream and a few sweetlip. then had a lot of fun with a 6 ft lemon shark on 20lb line :ohmy: which was subsequently released. having not fished harry's for over a year, i was surprised at the amount and quality of the fish i caught. i think the lack of boat traffic and overcast conditions might have helped. for those who fish there regularly, was this result just a fluke or is it not unheard of?

Great way to spend an afternoon mate. You're on the money..boat traffic around Harry's is the killer

whatever the reason for it, you did well. sounds like a great session, good to hear that you only took what you needed for a fresh feed. thanks for the report.

I second what Rocket said. Good to hear you only kept enough for an immediate feed:cheer:

Those sort of numbers are fairly uncommon. But I guess with the minimal boat traffic, the fish would be less shy.

A 6' Lemon Shark:ohmy: That would have taken a while to land on the 20lb gear
