Tomorrows options?
Submitted by Robbo88 on Wed, 2013-09-04 21:32
G'day everyone!
With the light winds tomorrow I'm putting the boat in the water, But I'm unsure what to target due to the swell. I'll have the brother in law and his Mrs as well as my other half and our 2yr old in tow so heading to FFB is out of the question.
I'm thinking we'll heading out mid morning in the Cockburn sound for some squid. Anyone heard whether they are still about? Or maybe Mandurah estuary for some tailor?? Any ideas guys?
Cheers

Was watching you bring that up, hoping it was a snapper
What was chasing the fish at the surface, big Sambo or Shark?

Sorry I can't remember which
Sorry I can't remember which boat you were, so many came and went, we were the 3rd boat there just after 5 this morning. That's only the second time I've fished there I don't think I'll do it again, I can't stand the boats getting so close to me haha. I didn't see anything chasing it, did you see something? The sharks were there early but we didn't get to see it unfortunately.

Lost my spot when the anchor
Lost my spot when the anchor line frayed on something and came loose. Need to go get a new anchor tomorrow
All I could see was a large brown colour under those jumping fish.
Couldn't see well enough to check what it was

Thanks for the replies guys.

Never managed to get out today. We got stuck helping out a mate with the electrics on his prado after it went swimming at white hills on the weekend.
Will definitely be out over the next 3 days and with the swell dropping things are looking up!
