Very Impressive
One tough fish from the rocks, fished that spot quite a bit around the same era, some of the most spectacular coastal scenery and well worth the walk out there.

She was a cracker
had some good times in that area , some really special spots that everyone is locked out of these days , talking to mates fishing over that way recently reckon the fishing is almost as good with plenty of kings , bonnies and smaller tuna , don't know about the Fin though . We used to frequent the Gorge , Eves and the Tubes heaps with Big Bea thrown into the mix , plus Crocodile Head for some stonking Big snapper , spins me when I think about the risks we used to take , all our ropes were from the Port Kembla rail yards , mates Dad was working there .....

Good times
The Tubes was our favourite in that area, another long walk but easy fishing, we caught plenty of yellowfin there but nothing like your mates, ours were more around the 10- 20kg mark. There were often bigger fish around but too good for us or our gear to handle.When the Navy were doing bombing practise we learnt to drive out at 5am and hide our cars at the top of the track well before they dropped the boom gates and the whole area was closed off - pretty nice having the Tubes just to yourself and a couple of mates and quite an experience fishing while bombs are exploding in the distance and jets are buzzing around, plenty of celebrations at the Currarong Bowling Club!
