Nice day with a sunny sky, light wind and slight seas. And with about 20C it was like a summer day in UK or Scandinavia. Libby and Bob’s team enjoyed the day with a good catch of mixed reef fish, i.e. Red Rock Cod, Wrasses, Trevally, Sea sweep, Mackerel and Bob’s Flounder …
Fish of the day was Gabriel’s blue Morwong. It’s a nice fish with white firm flesh. They are prefect for baking, steaming or the barbecue. Or wrap them in foil with you’re a little butter and your favorite herbs. It is a good idea to put two or three cuts on either si …
…the wind came in. As it is this time of the year, sea breezes kick in around midday, this weekend from the NE and up to 25 knots. But the teams did well both Saturday and Sunday. On both days the kingies and salmon didn’t want to play. We saw big schools off Wattamolla a …
Other than the last couple of weeks with heavy rain and big seas, April has been good and particularly the late Easter days. Today Easter Monday was sensational with clear sky and calm seas and no wind. Dez hooked up a nice Samson fish on Middle Ground off Cronulla. They are …
Yes it was a little windy but mostly from the west which saved the day for us. With a westerly wind we get some protection by being close to shore and under the cliffs down south at the Royal National Park. The teams did well and as you can see in the picture, 12 year …
Hey, after a couple of difficult months due to sea conditions and warnings, we have finally struck some good weather. We did our trolling run around Jibbon Bombora and then headed south along the Royal National Park. We expected a few strikes with kingies or bonito but no luc …
We had a very nice day at sea with light wind, slight sea and clear sky. With very nice and clear water at 24.4 C degrees. Unfortunately the dolphin fish were not at home at the FAD off Port Hacking, probably out chasing food. But striped tuna and bonito made of for it with m …
The depth range of skipjack tuna can be from surface waters to 260m during the day, but at night it is much shallower. As the guys onboard now knows, striped tuna or stripies are a schooling fish having a general tendency to school by size. We had a multiple hook-up of four s …
The Sergeant Baker fish is probably named after Governor Phillip’s orderly sergeant, William Baker. As you can see, they can be recognised by its long tapering body, blotched coloration and its behavior of sitting on top of rocks looking out for passing prey, as divers …
The day was arranged by Matt and his Australian Navy mates but we also had two overseas visitors, Martin and Triin from Estonia. It was one of those days we really like and everything is easy. With the NE wind forecast we headed north towards the cliffs off Kurnell. Crossing …
