It is nice to be out of the sun too. Even when it’s overcast it’s not cold like the old country. It was still 25 deg at 04:00 when we drove to the boat ramp.
The billfish are always a challenge but it’s a lot harder when they aren’t here. Being pelagic we’ve got to wait until they show up in proper numbers before we have much chance at catching them. I’m no pro but from what I saw in two days of fishing, combined with the tournament results from a week and a half ago it’s my opinion they’re just not here yet.
Seems we might have to head back to Hervey Bay if we want to scratch that billfish itch this days off. I’ll see how it goes, need to service the outboard and spend some time with the family before I head out again.
