Report on-board Brighton Lure Boat
Saturday
The forecast was for good weather and a Birthday Boy (Jay) on board and regulars Malc and John, the plan in place was completely thrown in file 13 (bin), Slow Pitch Jigging being the way we’re going to fish.
We proceed to an area where I’ve been successful in previous visits, not a sniff, so we moved on to the next area in search of Silvers, and found in abundance the tide running at around .7-8 of a knot we had a good chance, Slow Pitch Jigging being the order of the day, and it worked big time.
The first drop down we had all rods into a fish, Jay was over the moon with his first boat caught bass, followed by John and Malc quickly followed by the skipper.
The next 90 minutes was pretty frenetic, with over 25 fish boated, biggest was 7lb 9oz which was returned and with numerous drop-offs in the process, everyone on board managed the 2 bag limit, with 2 fish in excess of 4lb plus, some great fishing, was had and the move onwards was decided for us, the weather crept on us and decided to change for the worst, the tide running at 2plus knots time to move horrible raindrops not pleasant situation for anyone.
We moved inshore for some fun on the next target species was Mackerel and Herring, we managed just one of those Mackerel not many but enough for the Barbie.
All in all the persuasion to go deeper paid dividends and a great 4 plus hours was well worth the effort.View Boats Page
