The following is Marks account of what can only be described as a few days of awesome fishing.


Unbelievable is the only word to fully comprehend the fishing from the Sunday to Wednesday last week.
It was out of control with Hoodlum kingies all over the surface and absolutely no one around except 1 boat and us for the most part.

All in all we bagged out with 15 or so significantly legal fish (1 significantly over a metre a 96, 92, 86, 84, several 72-77 and assorted stragglers in the 65-75 range. Best part about it was there was bugger all rats.

Of note also were 3 lost monsters 1 at the boat by Paul. I lost 2 on 80lb fluorocarbon.

A rough chronology of the events of last week was as follows..........

Saturday afternoon – Myself and an unknown hobbo out. Got a few almost legals but it felt fishy

Sunday Afternoon - Paul myself and 1 boat out. Lost count of the fish and effectively ran out of  live bait and plastics.

Monday had to Work

Tuesday morning- just Paul and myself were out. It was a relatively quiet morning before we had an almost simultaneous strike. Paul landed his 1.170m I drop another big fish. Faaaaarrrrrk. I had to work Paul goes back out immediately gets smashed lands another 92 then an 86 straight off the bat. Faaaaarrrk again from me for not suddenly feeling too ill for work.

Wednesday – only Paul fishing and a few hobbo's along with the whole of Sydney. The news was out photos were posted on a fishing website.....the damage as always had been done. There was a flotilla of boats, pro boats, charter boats, spear'os on jet skis and every recognisable local was there. Paul loses another big big fish. Looked like Pitt St on a busy day.

Nice one Mark...And that my friends is why we keep to ourselves and do what we do!
