Lagoon Pier



Date: 29 January 2017
Weather: Mild & Calm. 
Time: 3am - 8am.  
Crew: Toon, Ross, Willo Huggett
Target Fish: Snapper, Gummy, Garfish
Bait:  Pillies, Squid, Silverfish
Catch: 1 flathead
Report: About time we organised a boys fishing session. Wound back the clock and hit up a pier. We remembered how boring and slow pier fishing is! Pretty much no action all morning. 

We hit the incoming tide in conjunction with sunrise. No action at all, until the sunrise began. Lots of pinkies were being pulled up by the locals in what was about a 45 minute hot session which then died down. Thats when we landed the flathead and decided to pack up shop and roll home. 

We berley-ied hard using weet-bix mixed with tuna oil, and then also pulled out the oldschool method of crucnhed up twisties to entice garfish. Nothing. What a waste of good twisties in the end. 

Cooked the flattie for lunch. Was the typical awesomness that flathead is. 

Report: 6/10. Its fishing. Still fun, therefore 5 +1 for one tastie flattie.
