Glanville:- woke up this morning and looked out the window to a glassy calm ocean, a very comforting feeling indeed, it was changeover day today and the Gt assassins of the week just gone were packing their bags to give way to a fresh group of anglers, the new group of guys are not all that interested in catching Gts just yet and we went hunting some light tackle fish in the shallows but the humour of it all is that we kept on getting smoked by Gts on the light tackle, so I thought we would do a little trolling and catch a couple of spanos, but that also ended up in tears as a Gt came and crashed our Magic Swimmer...we ended up catching a couple of coral trout and a shoal of mackerel in the short afternoon of fishing and I look forward to looking out the window to a glassy calm ocean again tomorrow.
Nick:- Went out this morning with Sandy, Tim and Sean on a one last chance to see the fish that has stretched them this last week of fishing. We started working some bommies right next to Oddessey where patches of bait had been rounded up to the surface. With the boys casting in anticipation, we were seeing fish but not hooking them. We systematically worked each bommie and managed to pull a fish from one of them and on Tim's last cast for the trip he managed to get another fish to bring the weeks total to 520 GT's for 5 full days fishing 4 boats and a monster of 60kg in the mix. On changeover things took a rather nice pace with the new guys just wanting to have their rods bent by anything so we had an eventful afternoon with a few nice gold spots, plenty shark mackerel and 4 GT's made for a nice afternoons fishing. Another great day out on the reef.
Alex- The weather was great today glassed out conditions and bait everywhere, we had a heap of look ins but only managed to boat 1 gt and pulled the hooks on 3 others, we also caught 2 spano's and a heap of shark mackerel. Hopefully tomorrow we will stick the hooks on more.
