So on Sunday evening I was down the boat, full of fuel already, thanks to mate who sorted that out 🙂
It was pretty cold down there but nice and snug in my sleeping bag, alarm set for 06:15 as Ian ( @headlight) was due to meet me on boat at 06:30. Woke up to voices ar 06:00…. He was already there, so quickly got dressed and, called the pier head to sneak out of free flow 🙂 we were out of the marina by 06:15 🙂
A little over 2 hours later we started our drift, chum out, rods out put the kettle on and 5 mins later Ian was into a nice blue giving him the run around 🤣🤣🤣
Thats how it went all day…. Constant fish. 24 blues, best going 140lb at least 5 over a ton, most 80-90lb.
If it was quiet, I mixed up some fresh chum, to boost the chum and straight away into fish. I can’t stress enough why you need regular chum and keep that chum bag releasing well all day!
We could of had more as we had a few in the slick at end of the day we were sight fishing for but these we’re smaller ones, only 70lb so after chatting to the crew with achy arms we headed home. Was right call as wind got up and got a bit of sorwy coming in from easterly wind. Back into Marina just before 7pm. Long day but worth jt 🙂
Nice to get Odyssey back on the sharks, now for something a little bigger maybe 🤔🤔🤔
Pics to follow once I get them sent over
