Sorry, didn't get time to do a proper report. Fished this with Kraken, Eric, LOVE TO FISH and adam. Two other lads fished beside us. We fished from about 9pm to just before 1am. John was still there when I left.

I was worried when I arrived that it might be bad. The wind was coming from the NW and the sea was cutting up a fair bit. A lot of floating weed and very dirty water.

Anyway, as it turned out, the fishing was OK. All the smuts were around 4-5lbs and gave a good account in the current. By the time I was leaving I think most of us had at least 3 smuts. adam was getting pup tope as well. There were one or two dogs, a couple of small schoolies and a flounder. The smuts were taking both rag and crab.
