Saturday - Best afternoon out of two rocks so far!!

 Left two rocks marina at midday yesterday after the wind was forecast to drop off. Headed out 30km in NW direction in search of new ground as my other marked spots have been producing alot of undersize dhueys and baldies last few trips. Sounded around for a while and happened upon some ground that dropped off quickly from 34m to 48m metres and schools of fish lit up on the sounder at the deep end. Dropped straight onto them and bang up came the dhuey in first pic that was just under 12kg. Baits down again up came the other smaller dhuey in pic2 at 8 kg. Between the mrs and myself we then got 3 undersize baldies, two breaksea cod with one being a keeper at 44cm and the mrs got a little dhuey that went back and a big arse sea sweep that fought like hell very much like a pinky with lots of headshakes. Went back over the same area again and got the double header of good dhueys in pic 3 which of course also went back. Decided we had plenty of quality fillets for the freezer and headed back in windless conditions with the ocean having that "oily silver silk" look - was a fantastic few hours out  .
