Port Hacking - some more jackets


Yowie

Recommended Posts

Headed out early this morning up from Lilli Pilli. Picked up the tailor and smaller reddie on fish strips, and a squid grabbed one of the baits. It let go and disappeared, so I lobbed out a jig a few times and on one of the casts the squid grabbed the jig as it was sinking and hooked itself.

I cut off one of the big tentacles for bait and the larger reddie grabbed it. Also a few about just under size.

The jackets were taken on small squid pieces (from a frozen squid). Also released some jackets as they were too small.

I would have kept trying to turn that squid into a few snapper! But well done all the same yowie you still managed a feed!

Cheers scratchie!!!

Thanks Scratchie. I used the 2 big tentacles and a few smaller ones, but most reddies were just under size.

That's good going getting a 40cm reddie from the hacking, well maybe not for you but I'd be stoked!

Well done again.

Happy enough with the reddie, a feed for 2, and a nice eating size.

That 40cm red is a nice fish yowie, ill swap you a king for a couple of those reds anyday

Thanks Krispy, BUT, you can keep your kings, would rather have a reddie around that size.

I visited Lord Howe Island on 2 occasions many years ago, and the kingies over there taste much better than the kings here.
