Re: Disco's Fishing Adventures
Cheers everyone
In case anyone is wondering, the shots of a fish are on the self timer. Three things that are hard to do on a boat by yourself
1) launch
2) net
3) get a good photo! haha

Re: Disco's Fishing Adventures
Phillip Island, Victoria
December 16 & 17
Thought I would include this one as I did some land based fishing with the old man when I was down for a holiday. Not a lot to report, got a grass whiting and a few other bites, but the wind basically made it impossible to fish two days in a row the sand was pelting into us and we had to call it early. Still nice to get one, nice part of Victoria.
Got:
No keepers
Story of the trip:
Having to purchase a *shudder* fishing license
Boat problems:
Was a land based trip
Snap
Adelaide River
January 24
First trip since the break and it was pretty uneventful. The original plan was going to be Bynoe but given the winds and my reluctance to drive such a distance when a storm could roll through, we went to the Adelaide. Only got one hit for zero fish. Stopped by the famous Kai and Goat Island. Good to get out om the water but a very quiet day.
Got:
Me, Mud, Mud's daughter - nothing
Story of the trip:
Not much to report really, didn't get rained on which is always a bonus at this time of year. The water was very dirty and we only found a few good colour changes, but it didn't produce anything.
Boat problems:
My boat is shorting out if it gets swapped to battery 2. Things were okay as I could just run it off the main one, but really annoying, this is a brand new battery, also my first 'boat problem' that has repeated itself, i.e. the rest I could think 'well who knows when the last time X was looked at' but this time I know... brand new, July

Re: Disco's Fishing Adventures
Yeah good one Trev!!:-)
Was great to meet Kai and finally get up to the top of the Adelaide. Nice day out but it sure seems like a place where it helps to know when and where. Two boats got barra. Not much tannin anywhere. Yesterday was the first day the river has backed up on the incoming this season.
Nice to see you posting again alfie.....thought you had disappeared.

Cheers Mud. Has been a long time mate. Boat less for a couple of years after the birth of my second little boy. Didn't do a great deal of fishing due to bub and work travels. Anticipating to be on the water a lot more this year.
