Weather: Dry with 11mph SW

Bait: Mackeral Squid

Rigs: Baited hokkais and a firetail

Results: Lee got at least a dozen whiting, I blanked

Bad job when someone else christens your boat :(

Unfortunatley I did'nt get any whiting...all I got was abuse from that other so and so .

The whiting were caught at Blackhead
