Well we had a couple of hours chasing down the mighty Yellow-Fin Tuna but had no joy. This was really my first time at doing it as it isn't something I really do, not sure how the guys do it day in and day out but yip when we came across Dolphins and Gannets working my hart did start to race.

Although we didn't get into them I must say it was a pretty epic day, just seeing the Dolphins working and the Gannets diving is very special and as long as I'm getting a line wet with a couple mates that's all I really need to have a great day on the water.

Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose but that's what keeps ya going and getting you back out on the water.

New adventures are a whole lotta fun and hope to be back out there giving it another shot....

Tight lines

Nice one man. I’m guilty of it by never posting a fishing report on here but intend to this season this forum holds so much info for a green fisherman as apposed to Facebook where we all get our updates from now. Even if you don’t include the spot x where you saw/hooked/caught fish it makes for good reading thanks for the good read
