Went out to the first bank off Jurien on Friday with my oldest (Connor) and youngest (Marshall) sons for a bit of bottom fishing and Marshall caught his first legal dhufish (56cm) at the age of 10 years 3 months, which beat Connor's when he was 10 years 7 months! That was our first fish of the day, I then got a legal dhuie and baldie on an octo jig, before Connor followed up with two baldies, then Marshall completed the bag limit with another baldie. Smallest fish, 46cm, biggest 63cm.

Total fishing time was just on two hours...I then asked the boys if they wanted to play around with the jigs but they didn't want to risk killing something that would be going back anyway. Very happy with our Jurien trip so far, we got about a dozen tailor to 46cm on lures this morning (all released), hoping to get out to the bank again tomorrow, and of course another shot or two at that shallow water snapper lump from the other day. Towards the end of next week is looking promising weatherwise so we may just have to stick it out until then!
