Ja altie picture it they rock up full of bravado and all
First up dave burns wade off then snaps off half his topshot they finally get a fish close and dave pops the leader. They decide to braai and realize they can't light the fire. It doesn't matter cause a seagull has chowed their meat witch dave left outside the coolbox. Now it starts to rain and yep u guessed it no tent.
Must I go on or u get the picture.

Fluke those cows are ONGESKIK!!!!! That 60kg of Henning's had no manners at all, and at strand a while ago i stopped after collecting red bait and watched a chap nearly get one stuck to his leg.
Boeps i don't think you had a cow on, they tend to come up to the surface and flop around after they are hooked.

the amount of line thats in gonubie point now is just absolutely horrible, i slid twice and lost everything twice, i threw a throw bait to the left and didnt get tangled so it looks we hav to throw left now chaps, now we gana have the holiday chaps throwing over our lines
, thats proberly why FLUKE is getting the bites because theres no line in the way, well isnt as much line in the way

Sadly the big swell has now messed up that formation as well and last nights trip was fruitless.
Here are however some of the Sandies I managed on light tackle; a 6'7'' Loomis Trigya, Fierce2000 and 20lb braid that was replaced with 10lb braid to improve the level of fun
On the 1st night, first up was a 63cm(10,6kg) Blue Ray that gave a good account of itself. Luckily I hooked this one on the turning tide so it never had much current to assist it.

Wade also got about 6 Sandies and a Diamond ray on the 2 nights. I also managed a Blacktail and 40cm Spotted Grunter. All were caught on a Ryoichi no 12 hook, 1/2oz ball sinker using tiny mullet heads for bait.
Most of them were caught on a strong outgoing tide and put up a seriously good fight on the very light tackle.
