JDP Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Feeling a bit shattered after a 120k run in the 15 footer today. Bar crossing conditions were pretty good but unfortunately one boat just after we headed out was overturned trying the crossing and a life was lost and one in hospital. The run out tide with swell and wind chop is what makes this crossing so dangerous, even on a day like today where wave height was just 1m. Today’s trip was just a spearfishing session, wanting to get the young lad I regularly fish with into his first dolphin fish. There were no end of fish in the 80-90cm size but no big fish sighted. My daughter was in the water with him giving him a few tips. The lad was soon back in the boat when a 4m tiger shark checked them out!!!!!….also a small mako of around 80kg made a brief appearance.
