Been awhile

Post by seephil » Wed Nov 14, 2018 4:20 pm

Hi everyone, it’s been awhile since I’ve been on fishvic. Change of jobs, got married, blah blah blah. Hardly got out the last two years.

Now that I decided to take a sabbatical :tongue: , I got a bit more time to fish.

Went out today with a few good ol mates to wet a line and blow off all the dust on my rods and reels. Have to admit, I had to jog my memory to tie knots... :(

Anyhow, we launched at 8:30 and went towards Quail bank. Went to our first spot and burleyed, while waiting for the low tide at 11:50.

For the first 90 mins we had Nothing, nada, zilch, donuts...
decided to pull anchor and sound again for anything that resembles a drop off, channel. 5mins later we anchored up. Started to burley and wait.

20 mins later, about an hour before low tide, bites started coming in. One after another we started filling our bag. What I have to admire and love about WPB is the variety of fish.

We had a good 60 min session with constant fish. No snapper or gummy, but I did managed to land a pretty thick Salmon. Probably a PB for me, so happy days.
