first baldy for troy and a cracker at that!!!
myself and troy headed out on a late start, 9.30am before the first line hit the drink,
first drop for me resulted in a 55cm dhu which was released and we thought we were in for a good day, but it seem to go quiet for a couple of hours pretty much instantly after that.
then a few hours later all sorts of things came over the side, couple of small pinkys, 2 nice size queenys, 58cm kg, 48cm b/ass,
5 foot hammerhead, plus all the normal smaller stuff and then troy gets his first ever baldy at a fraction under 8kg.
pulled line like a steam train and we were calling it for a big pinky, then the baldy pops up and he is a very happy chappy.
not a bad pb to get on the board with!!
only kept the baldy, kg and the blackass, everything else was released to be caught again!
also played with the underwater camera on the bank for a little bit and seen some good things swimming around down there, a nice size sambo come to have a look at the camera as well as quite a few other fish, i am sure i seen a big dhu in the background but because i dont have a dvr yet i cant play it back, that will be next on the list!
cheers ron

steve, we only got to 48mtr
steve,
we only got to 48mtr and there was a increase in detail, only small but noticable, also the sensitivity was better, i think in the deeper stuff it will get even better.
before i make the final judgement i will wait till we hit the wrecks again.
when your on a brake tomorow giv us a call and ill tell you wat we seen on the camera and what was on the sounder?
lamby,
last time out i kicked his ass with me getting all the fish, this weekend was his for sure, troy spent a few hours on the jigs with no luck and switched to bait and then the pocket boxer was nailing everything.
a swim sounds good mate, keep it in mind??

nah mate not me, we were a fair few clicks south of rotto in the 40's.
