S.a. 1st Of May Options

[Bees Knees]

We have an annual South Aus fishing trip to Port Broughton and she has come around again. We leave 1st of May. 5 days of big snapper and whiting. Can't wait!!

The charter has never failed to put us on the fish(which i think is pretty impressive. We always come home with a feed.

After each trip, the fish go straight into their cool room. On the last day we all throw $10 in and one of the deckies will do whatever is needed with the fish.. We come home with with a variety of cuts and any big ones that are filleted, the fins get put to one side. (i thought this was strange at the time)

We have a BBQ down there with the locals that have become friends over the years, and the spread that they put on is sensational. And they BBQ the fins in their (secret marinate-haha) marinate. They come up beautiful.

On the Saturday, we never fish. The town shuts and goes to the footy. Whether they are playing at home or away. We always find the can bar and chher them on.

What started as just a fishing trip a dozen years ago has grown into an annual thing where the fishing is almost secondary. Whenever someone from down south comes up here, there is a bunch of calls.. everyone drops everything.. and calls in for a few beers and a chin wag...

I suppose in a little keen to get back down there hey??

Yes mate 11kg or something... Can you tell in getting itchy??..

The biggest was 13.2kg on the trips Ive been on.. Maybe we can start a guessing comp as to who caught that But they tell me it's not like the old day's.

The bloke that is next to him passed recently. He loved his Vodca and his fishing. We may need to have a toast out there or something Top bloke

Jumpy,

I would love to catch a big red, but want one with the massive deformed headbutt bump.

Nice fish Bees now the picture is working.

Is that bollard behind him motorised?

[Spudly]

My red the other week is not massive but was more than enough to please... Next year i will definatly fo a SA trip...

Jumpy, might start another thread, but would anyone care to elaborate on snapper behaviour? You say that bigger ones of sydney soon? Is this cause of colder water? I imagine that JB and BB will be the same? Will they enter the bays or are they offshore?

Yes it is mate.
