  • Went fishing today, caught a pike on a Samaki vibe, got it alongside the boat and as I was netting it, it chewed through the braid. No fish, no lure, just me holding a rod in one hand and a net in the other, wondering what just happened…

  • A bit of rain headed our way… 🛥️

  • Caught my first Australian Salmon today, didn’t get a measure on it, but it was about 45cm long and was a cracking fight on light gear.

  • Couple of screenshots of crazy bait balls from yesterdays lake session. Super thick white bait being cut apart by tailor.

  • Took the lad out fishing on the lake today, caught a few tailor and a solid flathead. Marked a couple of new spots too, keen to give them another try and see if they’re as productive…

  • Left my crab traps in overnight, went back out to get them this morning and 3 of the 4 traps had octopuses in them…chucked them back as I could be bothered with all the prep work to get them ready for the BBQ.

  • New PB (78cm) Dusky Flathead from out in the lake this morning…sent it back to fight another day

  • A small, approx. 4-5ft long, Hammerhead Shark I caught this morning off of Moon Island, just off Swansea Heads.

  • Nothing much biting today, at least the weather was nice. ☀️
