9:8 bass for Rube on JoJo Sent from my SM-G981B using Tapatalk

Engine had cooled and bit and we could motor around the corner to the slip. The day was quiet with boats and the slipway, though busy, was not packed with trailers. We think the mid morning by low water had put many users off, great!!! All home and shattered, rinsed boat ect and in need of early night. I think Liv and Ruben will sleep well tonight, I know I will! R Sent from my SM-G981B using Tapatalk

Great report of what sounds like a fantastic fishing trip. Liv's fish beats my PB by 2 lb Maybe the tow spoilt it, but with those fish I doubt it. Happy to offer you help Rob, PBSBAC Members always do. Ben did the same for Sam on Saturday in response to a phone call from me at work.

Back to a new drift..........only pollack (too big) as livebaits. Weather was good and spirits had been lifted. Talk was about how good a fish this was and how few bigger fish Adam or I had ever caught. Halfway through the drift after the 'big one' and Liv was not to be outdone. However, there was a twist in this one.....I went to check the bait on one of our rods, weed was everywhere. Covering baits and putting bass off. As I wound in, there was a thump on the bait and it is let go, it felt heavy, really heavy. I said to Ad "that felt big'", the ones that get away always do!! Anyway, I have it line and let line spill out to the float, just incase it was still about. 10 seconds later, the float slowly moved against the tide, slow and steady. Hmmm, looks interesting "Liv, come here". Well, the next few mins were exciting, Liv listened well, prob having just watch Ruben helped. I backed down on the fish as it had taken quite a bit of line. Again it was staying on the surface and kiting back and forth. It came to the net and wow, beast! Having just landed a 9.5, this looked biiiig! Having just whipped the head on the net, it was used more delicately! The fish went 12lb 12oz and was a beaut. Big old belly and very thick across the shoulders. Sent from my SM-G981B using Tapatalk

Species comp, nice feisty undulate caught by Martin on a pennel rig note the bloodied finger, but apparently it was only a little prick.

Haha, you think I'll tell you the mark.........no chance! R

Where did you get them Rob, I'm out on Wednesday? Great fish, the young'ns will remember them.

Well, could.this get any better.......NO! So we headed to X-ray for rays etc, well, dogfish and not much else, boredem set in for the dads! So, off to anchor and look for pout etc for........a few more bass perhaps? We got a few pour cod and pout, and back on the flats we were! Fast drifts 2knots and tons of weed clogging the leads and baits. Not good. Last 5 mins and zzzzzzzzzzz Adam had a great take. It was a takeablensoze bass and the kids took the P and laughed!

Went to drift with one bait and we'd try and feather on the drift, whilst using frozen joeys where we needed. The joeys failed and nothing else worked for sometime. The weather was awesome along with the seasl state. 12:00 and beers were opened, puls some food, bingo! The only live mackerel was grabbed. Ruben on the rod with plenty of instruction and guidance. The fish came to the surface and went back and forth for some time...... eventually coming to the net and on lifting the net head fell off! One more job on the list. It went 9lb 8oz and we were buzzing. Next fish was going to be for Liv which ever team's (families) rod it came on!

The one at Cobbs is the owner of MDL, and uses it to go onto Green Island which he owns to their house!! He also has another boat in case it’s wet!!! 🤷🤷
