You'd be very silly if you even thought about going out that far in your boat Majed & @ least show the common sense to know so.
To many people think they're hero's in little boats & like to brag about how far they travel to get to their favourite fishing spots I think those people are fools & I'll shoot down any comments they make. My little boat is around the size of yours & it's very very rare I take it outside the bay the seas have to be pretty flat. It's not just the seas that you have to worry about in a small boat weight transfer also plays a big role in my books I'll give you an example of what I mean. In my big boat I can have 3 guys on one side & the boat will only tilt over a fraction shark cats are also very good for this I call them a stable platform, I've been in boats where you sh*t yourself when just a couple of peeps go to one side to trace,gaff or release a fish & a very good example that I recall was many moons ago. Back then I was pretty inexpirienced didn't own a boat & fished with someone who owned a 18ft billfisher think we were both stupid cause we were out wide had Mako's around the boat all day hooked & lost the 1st 2 @ the boat when they rolled up the flyer rope you have to keep it short. Anyway after that the mother of all mako's rolled up & it was a race to see who hooked it wasn't interested in whatever we fed it just kept chewing on the burley pot tried whole stripey's fillets etc but no go. Then when my mate wasn't looking I snuck a kung fu fish he'd caught onto my hook the kingy was around 7 kg well that did the trick & I was in he was spewing cause I'd hooked all the fish that day, then he asked me what bait the mako took ![]() I couldn't lie cause he'd only find out later so told him Your Dinner ![]() ![]() We had that fish to the boat on 3 occasions fortunately for us Anton only had a crappy flying gaff & it wouldn't pin into the fish cause I reckon we would've been gonna's thinking about it later reckon the fish would've dragged the arse of the boat down add to that the condition had become sloppy we would've taken in alot of water & prob sunk anyways it was getting very late & after fighting this fish for close to 7 hrs on 15 kg tackle I decided to lock the drag & bust up didn't have GPS in those days fishing down south & didn't know how much fuel we had left. Oh ! the fish by the way was close to 15 ft long & after speaking to a few people who knew better than we an estimate of a 1000 pounder was put on it -------------------- ![]() Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |

That is why i love Estuary fishing.
It is relaxing, safe and for my type of fishing enjoyable for the kids. Beats working or bitten by a shark. -------------------- FISHING beats Working

You get a different sort of buzz out wide fishing for gamefish all it takes is one good fish to make the day worthwhile.
I was never a real estuary fisherman till a decade or so ago & only fished estuaries when seas were a bit big, these dats I quite enjoy fishing the Bay living close to it makes it easy as well generally only sneak out for a few hrs not one of those guys who makes a day of it. Pick my tides & off I go thats why I kept my little goat easy to handle on my own + I've gotten into this SP thingamajiggy & with new mods to goat it's ideal I can get into area's where I cant with the biggger goat. -------------------- ![]() Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |
