Don't mind where, don't care, just so long as we get wet. Where's the test of the PE okies?

I have some things to finalise before I go on holiday, so I think I'll skip this weekend and rather look at when the weather is more favorable. I'd rather do it when the weather does not look so good as to postpone it and then I have to do it on a day that the weather is perfect. So next weekend I will be able to go

Hey Rog,
Simisteven got some smallish sharks and fish i think; Malgas also got the usual, put a shad out as livey; whatever took it bit hooksnoot off.
The water had a alot of stirred up sediment / colour and the smaller sharks seemed busy.
i got an ok shad on the troll with the green makrel rapala again, - taxed. I took my son with - he's 10 - put him on a yozuri livebait rig to make sure he got fish - he got 11 assorted reds and frenchies so he's as stoked as can be. I didn't fish hard, helped with de-hooking fish and making sure its all on camera and just being a dad.
We saw dophins and whales; close up! - Malgas just about paddled over a pair of whales - adult and calf that just popped up in front of us. I got some cool video footage of them breeching further away! (i dont know how to post a video clip?)

Its not fair. Now I see why Malgas can paddle so fast. His arms are twice as long as mine. Just observing the whales that Fredsta described made it a day to remember. I got three small fish and a keepable rock cod. I also caught a small shark which succeeded in putting two deep puncture wounds in my wrist. Shark had a very sharp long spike near its tail which it stabbed me with. There was so much bleeding I was getting worried about attracting big brother.
Anybody know what type of shark it is. It was very beautiful, looked almost like a miniture replica of a Zambezi.
It was great day out, thanks Fredsta and Malgas.

Good to hear that you guys had a good time the shark will be a spiny dog fish. can be a real pain sometimes, been out before when as you pull one up there are like 13 or 14 others swimming with it. Think that there spikes are poisons, not to sure though. Fredster you heard anything else about the harbour.

Rog your are correct. I googled the spiny dogfish and it has some evil looking spikes. A lesson well learned.
A bit disappointing that I can't tell folk I got mauled by a dogfish. Shark sounds much better!
Sad thing is the article about the dogfish states that they are destroyed in large numbers by trawlers and game fishermen and some people make fish fingers out of them.
See you next weekend on the water, no babelaas pse!
