Bad luck mate.scott__henning wrote:Yeah mate was hard work today, we went west and found a few schools but couldn’t get a bite. Later in the day found the other boats 15km SE of the rock with plenty of schoolies busting up, again couldn’t get a bite.smile0784 wrote:Did you head down scottie?scott__henning wrote:I’m probably heading to Portland this weekend, will let ya know how we go if we get down there
Zero’s for us, interestingly there were at least 5 barrels hooked today.

Why? When it's basically a glass out judging by that picture and modern small 4 strokes using 2/5ths of f.a fuel at trolling speed there's nothing stopping a small boat heading offshore with a competent skipper.smile0784 wrote:cobby wrote:Just bought a Stabicraft 1410 fisher tiller steer?

Those blokes were pretty keen but yeah it was a total glass out, you could’ve fished offshore in a bathtub today.cobby wrote:Why?

1. Cos if the fish is big enough in a small boat it could pull you to port mac
2. Chance of weather comes threw fast
3. Boating a fish that size on a small boat could be tricky
At the boat wash in Portland, got talking to a bloke who swapped boats to give a single fisherman a hand to land his barre. He was fishing solo in a 4.5 metre tinnie and hooked a barrel, this other bloke hopped his boat to give this guy a hand driving his boat for about 2 hours until he landed a tuna eztimated weight 120kg.scott__henning wrote:Those blokes were pretty keen but yeah it was a total glass out, you could’ve fished offshore in a bathtub today.cobby wrote:Why?

They got that fish after a 2h fight and I’m more impressed that they managed to get the fish in the boat without tipping themselves out :rofl:
