People: Me and Geoff
Duration: 6hrs (3.30pm - 9.30pm)
Tide: low about 5.00
Weather: Calm, very nice later on
Bait:
Rigs: Feathers, hokkais, shad and some shiny metal spinners
Results: 1 red gurnard, 3 whiting, 1 Ballan wrasse, 5 Coalies, 12 Pollack, 2 codling
Report: Strange days fishing really, but nice to be out. Most of the time I was out the tide was very slack even later on, wasn't gettting much movement on the drift, so maybe that accounts for the relatively poor showing.
Couldn't find a mackerel for bait anywhere in the harbour and only caught the gurnard and whiting by accident when I let the feathers hit the bottom whilst I was looking for them. Picked up Geoff later and drifted (very slowly) the harbour rock picking up the cod, coalies and the pollack. Geoff got a nice wrasse on the hokkais, but nothing else to write home about.
On the wildlife front the dolphins are still around and a little seal off Carlisle Fort gave us a bit of amusement as it kept popping up anywhere we threw our spinners in whilst spinning for pollack, so not many fish caught there, but thankfully also no seals.
P.S anybody finds a boat hook floating (assuming they float) around the harbour good possibility it's mine :) lost it picking up Geoff from Currabinny pier. If you run into it in your boat however causing extensive damage, I doubt very much that it's mine.... :shock:
