next was the steel barge at the front of east arm to see what was going on and after about 20 red fish i movedc on to town hall.
Hammered over there and the swells and current were unreal
any way after about 3 goes of anchoring it would hold for 2 minutes then all of a sudden id be drifing at 2.2 knots on the gps 
i got the s...ts, anchored 20 metres in front and she hooked up. I sat down cracked a coldie
and proceeded to rig up for jewies and get a mack line out. I baited up with pillie and squid threw it in
and lit up a smoke 
and enjoyed my beer the breeze and just as i started thinking about how lucky i am to have the day off BANG! my little abu rod buckled over 
at first there was no fight so i thought id been reefed as it was snagged 
. after a bit of cursing the line freed up and to my suprise was the weirdest fish id ever seen 
. i held it up to the boys in the other boat and they said it was a barramundi cod and the best eating fish in the sea. so in the esky it went. straight after my little episode the boys hooked up to something huge. so i cracked another beer
and sat down and watched for 20 minutes as this bloke was busting his arse to gain on the monster he'd hooked 
. after what seemed like ages he had the biggest spanish mack id ever seen boatside, gaffed, bled on ice. funny thing is he was bottom bashing for jewies with a barra outfit with no trace and landed a monster mack , unreal what can happen on the water. but there you go guys, my day and my first post. cheers 
, a barramundi cod hey...sure it wasnt one or the other
