TWO DAY DEEP SEA FISHING









Saturday and the weather as its been for the last month was just right no wind and flat seas, We headed straight to the Peak which is about 6miles straight out of Botany Bay, I stop first and trolled past the F.A.D thinking we might score a few Stripe Tuna as they are about, As the lure bubbled past the F.A.D our first strike came and a Dolphin fish headed sky wards, The next pass another Dolphin Fish, Strange to fine them at this time of the year, next hook up headed deep to battle it out, this was a solid Tuna of about 5kgs, then all went quite at the F.A.D.
Headed across to the Peak and scored a few Pinkies off the bottom and a few Leatherjackets and lost quite a few leads(Bloody Jackets).
Sunday and the weather had changed we had a stiff breeze from the south so I trolled north towards Coogee, Our first hookup came just wide of Cape Banks on a small Mcgoo Lure, It was a Bonito so I replaced the two out side lures with one Rapala CD7 and my new lure that I have designed for Shimano and I left the Mcgoo in the middle, The next three hookups all came on the new lure, This is the second time its out fished the Rapala, first on Tailor in the Bay now on Bonito off shore, Iam very happy with these results.
Try our luck next around Wedding cake island but no good only a few Sweep. Pushed wide out into 60 metres and fished the bottom and again found Jackets and the odd Flathead to finish the weekend, Another top weekends fishing wide from Botany Bay.
WHATS COMING UP
Sunday and Monday of the long weekend are still open for bookings, Fish deep sea or a day on Botany Bay.
I will run both days as Singles day if I have the numbers or just book the whole boat.
