  1. Wanted to rent - Mothership

    in Saltwater

    Posted

    Im probably dreamin....

    But just puttin it out there

    Im on holidays atm.

    Anyone know how i could find out how i could possibly pay someone to rent their biggish sorta boat for a week or so ?

    Not to travel anywhere in it, just to have it anchored , say on the northern end of mud out of the southerlies that will be here soon

    Im keen to take my tinny to tie up to it, do all my fishing around mud island out of my boat, but need a bigger boat to have a warm sleep in, and to cook up dinner and breakfast in.

    Would pay decent coin for this to happen.

    You may have passed some of the good fish on the way out to woop woop........

    I still remember as a kid fishing  " Oi Dad , let's go out deeper for the bigger bream"  🙉

    Then when we re- anchored out deep and caught nuthin, i would cast straight back in to the shallows........ 🙊

    Turns out sometimes the bigger breamies were in the shallows the whole time anyways... 🦈

    Well, no big fellas tonight but thought i might share some interesting pics to help out those just starting out.

    Headed to a southern bay island late this arvo 

    Pic 1

    Find tbe bait

    ( notice the flat bottom with no reef) 

    ( also notice the vertical lines on the sounder - thats a bait jig, with full string hookups)

    Pic 2

    This is what was actually showing on the sounder - herring - millions of them.

    Pic 3

    The result was a couple of small snapper with the best about 62cm, was hoping for a stonker but not this time.

    There were definately pelagics present too, our 20 pound leaders were being snipped through like cotton, upgraded some leaders to 40 pound but no takes (typical)....

     

    Anyway, just thought i would share, take the time to find the fresh bait and you shall be rewarded.

  20. Bay Snapper On Bream Gear

    in Saltwater

    hahhahahaa @Drop Bear  yes they would

    I had all of may, june and july off work, but unfortunately i'm back at work and in my older years i dont have the energy to do a lot of midweek - after work night fishing adventures anymore....

    Although I think there's still 2 weeks left to add some more 3 fingered fish pics, so i shall endeavour to get out there! 

    But like many other species, that's the thing with bay snapper, of course they simply aren't at the same location all year round to be caught - that would be too easy 🙂.

    Locations that consistently produce bay snapper in june/july,  are almost snapper barren at other times of the year....

    Usually for me anyway, its not until november, december, january that i target some snapper around the more southern bay islands

    The new moon is coming - might be time for some BIG whiting and breamies in the shallows ay.....  🙂
