Popular Post mike farrants Posted August 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2022 Had a mate arrive at 4pm and by 5pm we were on the boat for a simple mackerel session. Shane doesn't have much luck and when he comes to stay its usually blown out and we don't catch much off the beach usually - so this trip looks mostly calm - we had high hopes. We left the marina and were soon into the mackerel and scad in portlands entrance - plenty coming aboard but didn't need too many - just enough for dinner - we also had a few small pollock. We even hit a shoal of tiny joeys and both pulled up a full string of around 10cm Joeys - all went back - great to see good numbers! we tried the wrasse on the rocks but they didn't want to play shane just had a small pout and as the wind was pushing us on, not off, we moved on. Given that i've had no luck on the Red band fish, i thought id put him on the mark and see how his luck fares - handing him the fish skin sabikis= no surprise he caught one relatively quickly and i am still to catch one - he was absolutely buzzing - i was into more mackerel and scad! seems his luck has changed - and there was more to come on Friday where I had taken the day off to go out all day onthe boat! we saw the dolphin and a cracking sunset too! happy days!
