Pelagics in the Harbour
Checked out a few wrecks (not much activity) and headed over to a few rock ledges where we encountered these little fellas obviously chasing bait. As we saw a few of them dart under the boat, turned to find a mob of birds working the surface. As the kids were happy enough to sit and watch the birds do there thing. I had to throw a jig in amongst them and without much of a crank I got to check my drag washers worked on my reel Stradic. Not long after the getting our first the Mrs hooked up and got her fist mack to the boat. We chased this school around for a bit and managed a few fish and the kids got to ratbag around in the Harbour while we chased them. So game plan didn't go down the way we wanted but made do with what we had and produced some nice fish, just goes to show, stay motivated and persistence always pays off.

Caution: there’s something fishy about this fella…
Fishing isn’t a matter of life and death…. It’s much more important.

If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!
Especially when you can see them!
