Well went for a nutta fish 2day new the Pete Goadby Memorial was on this weekend & it would be like Pitt St north so opted to run sth to my favorite YFT grounds.
Didn't set lure spread for them had marlin in mind rigged up 6 new lured last night & out went 4 of them did run a bibless minow down the guts in case YFT were lurking.
Mid morn a ganet caught my eye bombing about 1/2 a mile from us so headed that way for a better looky 200 meters out i liked what i saw boil ups with YFT on a feeding frenzy but by the time we got to them they went down.
A minute or so later starboard rigger went off hit the auto pilot & proceeded aft to give the boys a hand to clear the deck didn't take long cause only 2 rods needed to come in.
Yep peeps we were on a triple hookup sounds goodarus dosen't it ???
Well stuff you lot all 3 of us were in pain 37 kg standups no way we could get to the harness gear & we all had turns @ bragging who's balls were the soress think i won cause buggered if i was going to put up with sore nuts for much longer & went to hell on my fishy.
We were now faced with a prob who was going to trace & gaff my fish other 2 plics on board were kinda busy I dont fish club anymore so big deal if i broke the rules put rod back in holder chucked 1 motor into gear sorted out the gaff & doned the trace gloves.
Cranked in last 40 meters of line saw colour & got a liked what i saw esp the sickles traced him up & sank in the gaff prob not to bright an idea cause transom door was other side of boat anyways managed to get fish around motors push the other 2 guys out of my way & slide the fish in.
Wun down 2 to go took a few pics the other 2 guys were wooz's & had no balls fish were still a way out I pissed myself laughing @ the Wozzanater who was wearing a pair shorts b4 hookups but they resembled a mini skirt
Still dont know how he managed to force the bent butt into them & rip them to shreds & let tell ewe guys it was not a pretty sight
My fish is on the floor
Andrew wanted to weigh his fish for club points so decided we'd gaff his & release wozza's as they were good sized tuna with more than enough flesh on them.
With andrew's fish in the boat it was 2 down WunTuGo thought this will be easy but poor wozza was spent no balls, no shorts he looked like a old woman andrew took the rod I traced & this bloody thing went skitso i did well to hang on, all of a sudden water went red so much for releasing the stupid thing 2nd hook must've sliced though & cut a vein so in he came.
Boat was a mess Mr Hart took us @ least 1/2 hr to clean up then took a few pics notice how wozza is hiding the fact he has no balls & wearing black panty's under the skirt
Spread back out worked a big flock of birds for hr or so to no avail radio chat had quite a few marlins up nth where where last week really wanted a stickhead to top the day so headed nth.
I've never seen so many boats working ann area we did get a touch on one of the lures but yet again no solid hookup Bloody things
I estimated our fish which ine looked the heaviest to go around 65kg hoping to hit 70 kg they were fat
Andrews went a disapointing 54 kg & thats after sitting on the deck for 7hrs didn't bother weighing other 2
