About halfway to Point Lilias I started trolling a squid jig and picked up a bit of fresh bait. Probably should've held it a bit closer to the camera in hindsight, it looks pretty small.
I got to the mark right on sunrise and sounded around a bit to get a feel for the shape of the seafloor. Rather than the continuous drop-off I was expecting it seemed more like an isolated lump on the seabed. Anyway, it was structure so there were likely to be fish around at some stage. I was getting pretty warm peddling into the chop but as soon as I dropped the pick got a rest it got really cold really quickly.
I didn't get anything more than a nibble on the squid head on the last of the run in, but as soon as the tide started to run out it was mayhem as the banjos set about devouring my baits. I ended up with 6 in a pretty short space of time, including what was probably a PB before I decided to pull the pin and head back to the ramp.
Still no red carp, although the boaties I chatted to didn't have much luck either so maybe it's still a bit cold for them to be really fired up.
