We went out today & managed to get 13 nice big flat head in about 1 1/2 hours.

Miss Jane led the day with the first & the biggest.

I got the next biggest.

& "The Orphan" got the most so we did alright.

We put back about 1/2 again of what we kept as they were under size, along with some Dog Sharks & a foul hooked leather jacket about 100mm long.

We also saw a seal just lazing about hanging onto some floating kelp.

There was a Mako comp running out of Devonport at the same time & there were 35 odd boats in the comp & we also saw about 14 more boats running out of Port Sorell. It was the best day we have had yet this summer but come about 10:30 11:00 it was like some one flicked the switch & back up to 15 Kt.

Make 'em bait their own hooks, Pete. In my experience that slows 'em down.

Pete, from experience I've found that it's better to always leave the women at home. They always out-fish you. Now I'm just going to take cover.....

yes, women always outfish you. I took my mother and my mates wife out today and got outfished be Tobi (mates wife) but not mum due to me not taking her a handline so she had to use a rod and reel like the rest of us. 5 nice snapper mind you in the esky.
