Good day, plenty of bites. Gummies fought hard on 30lb braid and 80lb leader. Wind was a problem, had to re-cast every 10 minutes. All salmon, pinkies and schoolies on pilchards and all gummies on eel. Took me a month to order eel in though, but was worth the wait. |

Was good fun, fish biting hard from the second bait hit the water. Lost lots of fish. Could have done lots better. |

10 x baby luderick @ released |
| Comments: |
All snapper put up great fights but not nearly as big as the stingray. The baby luderick are everywhere around there and small hooks are required. I was surprised how big the flatties were considering that I have never got one over 35cm. All up a great afternoon. |

Fished out from Sandy Beach boxes in 12m of water, sounded up some biggies on my sounder and dropped anchor. 5 mins later, rods were buckling. Got 2 nice fish for a quick arvo session. Some reports are that the big fish are now lingering around the Faulkner Beacon. The fish have definitely come in in bigger numbers in the past week. Most of them have been caught from lunchtime onwards. |

Small salmon were a pain, kept knocking off the bait, eventually got a keeper, pity nothing else was biting. Anyone who has tips on the area please email me. |
