Allnighter

Couldnt resist another quick fish this afternoon with the weather so great!
Grabbed a couple of cans o beers and headed out to a gloriously flat bay.
Set the pointy end of the boat towards the island, cracked a can while cruising out there and really enjoyed the smooth ride and anticipation of what might unfold today.
Set the Minny on spot lock and slowly floated down two baits and wasnt long before one of the rods buckled over with the reel screaming off line!
Boated a nice snapper, rebaited and in again and wasnt long before number 2 snap hit the deck.
It really is hard to describe how hard these go in 5- 6 metres of water!
Doesnt get any better than that so decided to head home early and cleanup the gear.
 
 

About 15 years ago i used to fish the bay islands regularly with my sons and one close mate, but then some life changes got in the way and my close mate unfortunately passed away 😢
Back then i was a regular to Ausfish and met some great blokes, and had some great fishing adventures.
I sold the 5.2m Formosa 10 years ago or so, but have recently rekindled my passion for the bay again and have bought a 4.2m Renegade with the desire to fish the bay again with my two sons 😊
Well, the glorious bay is still there all these years later and i am thoroughly enjoying re-living the good old days!
What a beautiful place we have right at our back door!
Luckily i kept some gps marks from all those years ago which are still producing some great fish.
These are from just 5-6m of water.

I have a 4.2m Quintrex Renegade and recently self installed a Minn Kota Riptide I Pilot with spot lock.
It was under 2K complete with a 120ah battery.
I have never used the anchor since.
The advantages of using it when fishing or even exploring are mind blowing , lash out and spend the extra coin.....
Actually i would go as far to say that it would be more important to me, if i was on a budget, to spend the coin on an Ipilot,
instead of spending more on a flash tinny and a flash motor
It's like i've been born again... and i"m an atheist lol
gives me a boner every time i go out and deploy the electric ......
 

no, thats the new renegade, for a small tinny really impressed all round and especially with the ride and the stability at rest !
50 yammy four stroke, side console
The only improvement i found it really performed much better after i fitted a hydrofoil
And of course as previously mentioned, the minn kota with spot lock just ramps up our results shitloads!!
Thanks for the kind words and encouragement, it really is grreat to be back to the bay where i feel i belong!!!
Anyone know of where Webby {Brian} and any of the old Ausfish crew ended up?
I can't seem to get my head around why i should have to pay to become a member of a fishing site to contribute towards it??  weird shi t  that is .....

Picked up a Minn Kota " i Pilot" for my tinny and self installed myself recently.
All of our fishing is estuary based and also including open bay areas from Macleay out to Mud island 
Holy crap, i don't know how i ever did without one! , what a magic bit of gear......
Spot lock is fantastic ! 
Have not even thought about touching the anchor rope since yeeeehaaaaaa 
Obviously also great for slow trolling lures, slowing drift speeds when flicking plastics and doing it all silently without spooking fish.
As long as the elec motor lasts for a considerable amount of time , i would consider it the best value piece of equipment i have ever purchased for any boat ever.....
