Freedom Day - Port Phillip Snapper search

 Date: 26/10/21

Weather: 18 degreesies, mild to low wind, relateivly calm water. 

Spots: Mornington 20m, dromana reefs, mt martha spoil grounds around 18m. 

Bait: Silver whiting, pillies and squid. Pillies for berley. 

Catch: Flatties and banjos. 1x rock cod. 

Crew: Toon, mac and jax. 

Review: Hit morning with jax and mac, before the school said they need a covid test so had to drop them off at safety beach pier 2 hours into the session. then fished till 7pm looking at dromana reefs (not much there, probably best fished at night), and then mt martha grounds. spent a lot of time sounding this area, not a lot of activity, but the spoil grounds had a lot of schools coming through, bait fish and snapper schools. sounded a good school and anchorered right ontop of them, but they were simply not hungry. Spoke to a few people at the ramp too and no one caught any snapper which is strange. 

Rating: 6.5/10 was annoying we had to pull up stumps really early to drop the boys off, but then again spending a further 4 hours just by myself exploring the waters was great. no snapper caught though!!
