Port Phillip Bay Winter Session June

Date: 28/6

Weather: Calming through the day. 

Spots: Went to rye to chase squid, worked the grounds at south channel pile but only snagged 1 squid. then moved to Pinnance Channel to look for a gummy. No luck after an hour or so. Then trolled through some bait balls in search of salmon. No luck. Then moved to the east side of mud island to chase whiting and flatties. There were these weird bugs on our bait after 5 minutes, so pulled up anchor. Then went to Pile 1 in chase of gummies again and caught heaps of flatties. Then went to the middle of the bay in chase of snapper. Caught heaps of flatties. 

Catch: 30-40 flatties, 14 keepers. A couple of banjo sharks. 1 squid. 

Crew: Ross & Toon

Review: Awesome. Just awesome. 

Rating: 10/10. Would have been nice to catch a few more squid and a proper fish, but sooooo good to get out.
