Wind was 80mph+ and sideways hail.. A few people were in danger of losing boats as didnt tie down properly so sorted that out as it’s not just their boat that get damaged but also the neighbours Geoff, mick, suzook12 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDP Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Quick run offshore again today, within 30 mins of leaving harbour had a double hookup on striped marlin again ( first two baits in the water). Unfortunately one managed to get the circle hook into its gut so we ended up having to kill it and head straight back home with it to get it on ice. Left my daughter out there with her boat who was extremely exited having caught and released a tiger shark which are not common this far south. She had also tagged a few other sharks that didn't manage to bite through her mono marlin traces, not sure how she finished up yet. We've kept three marlin over the last three weeks which are surprisingly good to eat but would much rather release them. Todays fish was a small one of around 80kg which I passed my rod over to a youngster on his 13th birthday to land. Conditions were not the greatest for pic's due to cloud and rain but I will sort a few pic's when I down the pics onto my main computer. Hooked a marlin and bronzy in 12m of water last trip out that both took kingfish we were trying to land on light tackle!!!!! Oh almost forgot, my daughter pulled 7kgs of prawns from the lake across the road from our house two nights ago, Im sick of eating prawns!!!

No but they look just like the 10kg haul she caught before this one, a prawn is a prawn, unless they are those alien ones they get in South Africa (District 9).

JDP Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Not going to be happening here. Had a look at getting out today with just 5kts of wind but the swell was pushing constant sets with virtually no gaps to sneak out through. Forecast is set to get 4x this for the weekend, which should be interesting 🤨 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike farrants Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Was looking at today, as it was off the land, but it was forecast 20mph + and think it was right to stay at home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any pic's ? how is the 3m sea measured in your area. This is under 2m swell with aprox 1m wind wave measured by the floating wave height buoys out at sea. Are yours measured the same way. When I was in the UK and surfing we would of called these waves 3m, when I moved over here I got a shock what true 3m waves are!!!

Did get some cross wind chop for 30 miles but the other 70 was ok 🙂 Strong offshores blown main swell out today and massive tides mean surf is crap sadly JDP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
