Hello All,
Last two days fishing,
We went out yesterday and it was beautiful on the water, calm and flat. Our aim for the day was Squidlies but unfortunatly we did not get on to them and only managed 1 tiny squid.So called it quits and headed to a pinkie mark which always produces! We ended up with 10 pinkies ranging from 29cm to 37cm, when I then saw a bunch of birds working the water in the distance, So off we went to get ourselves some Salmon. It was just one after the other! Double hookups and me and my father just swapping, driving the boat and winding up salmon at the same time! Good team work and we managed to get 40, when we decided to stop! Also got on the radio to call over other friends and they all managed to get some salmon too. Covered in blood we called it the day...
Today,
Cause it was a public holiday, we took out a couple friends that have no boat but love to fish, It was alittle choppy but our friends where so keen, so we took them to a mark that we knew had been firing with pinkies. We ended up with 29 pinkies ranging from 29cm to 39cm in an hour, Then we decided to take them to fish for some squidlies, we ended up with 20 and I managed to catch a 1kg squid, which they had never seen before. Whilst fishing for squidlies, I saw birds working again, Took them over and let them have ago at the Salmon and they ended up getting 20. Me and my father didnt get any and let our mates fish for the salmon, as we had already got so many yesterday and we just loved watching our mates falling over themselves with joy catching the salmon. We than decided to call it the day and head home to our wifes and kids to have a BBQ. So now its time to relax and enjoy what we have caught....Our friends cant stop smiling from ear to ear and they reckon it was the best mornings fishing that they have ever had!
Hope you all have a happy and safe easter with your family!
