55cm and fat as, I actually thought I’d foul-hooked a nice snapper as he was pulling drag.

I paddled out a few kms today, it was a stunning morning, the charm of fishing in the morning for me is less about hungry fish and more about how stunningly beautiful it is every time...but after paddling for 45mins I remembered where in the shed I had left my knife, but I figured I could fish without a knife...and then a guy arrived in his tinny with a Yamaha 15 and motored around me in circles for 45mins  catching Macs, God it was a relief when he motored off, the peace and tranquility of the yak is the beauty of it.
 I targeted large snapper and JDs today, with live Macs and large baits, however  nothing touched that rod all day, but I did catch dinner on the other rod:)
The fish were all euthanized with a small wooden fish shaped chopping board, which I made at woodwork  at Glenfield intermediate in 1977, I was getting rather good at wielding this mere, by the end of the session I was hardly hitting my fingers at all.

I can't decide where to go tomorrow, was thinking about launching at Army and heading over to Tiri but I am concerned the the NE may come in stronger than forecast which will make things unpleasant...

Launched at army bay around 5.40. Paddled straight to Tiri. Found some fish just north of NW point in about 15m. Quick limit in the bag by 9am, best about 58cm I think.
