bashed the harbour today again. similar to last week (thurs) when went out (but didnt write report). incredible number of boats and kayaks on the water at 5.30. on a wednesday? at least the fish r still there.
Squidding was a bit better than previous, got 6 from the size of the jig to a decent breeder. heaps of little yakkas but had to go to several places to get a few deifferent sizes. Saw Bonnies about round dobby but didnt stop for a troll. Went to a few markers - inc neilsen and others but most were full of rats, biggest fish 70cm.
Hooked up something big at quarrantine, most likely a shark cos it pulled 7kg of drag easily and ran me for 50-60m before bust off, but could have been a big mackerel cos the multiple runs were un sharklike. (heard there's been a few about)
Finally went middle harbour way and found a few balls of bait. Hooked up more rats, but generally pretty quiet. Was slack tide by then so not too suprised.

Mate thinking back it would probably have to be the yakkas, but more so becuase we could leave them amongst the pickers and still have a bait out when the kings returned. Using fine guage 3/0's, their are some tiny yaks in the harbour at the moment.
How are the plastics treating you??
