vo2c88 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Sounds like it was pretty tough out there on Friday for alot of people. Not much bait off sydney but sounded promising at the JB kink with a fair bit of bait around and spotted free jumping marlin. Apart from 6 resident seals in botany bay and a pack of dolphins I thought it was going to be another sight seeing day till around 2.30pm on the way back 12km NE of Browns in 22.2C when as I was dosing off from boredom and the mrs asleep in the cabin all hell broke loose with both outriggers breaking off at the same time. Ended up with 2 fat albacore and a first for Sam, couldnt be more proud seeing its her first offshore gamefish and the way she handled herself. Now for a marlin :-) Not the yellow I wanted but I'll take it anyday. I'll be back. Both took 6' pakula skirts in lumo green and purple.
