Busted Diesel 19Sep14

Fishing Report Friday 19/09/2014 by Jaro

Conditions: beautiful sunny day with no swell to speak of.
Wind 5 knots increasing to 7knots and then dying out altogether.
Negligible current.
Participants: Diesel, Mahatma, Stormin, Red Greg, Carlo and Jaro.

Everyone arrived at MG around 5.00am (+or- 20 minutes). The seas were very calm so exit (and entry) was dead easy.

We all headed for JS at various intervals with Diesel leading the way. Diesel hooked up off Dolphin Pt/Granite Bay and proceeded to have a long fight. Unfortunately, Diesel's reel broke and he then used his hands to pull the fish in which turned out to be a long tail tuna. He did get it to the kayak but missed his attempt to gaff it, whereupon the tuna had a flurry of action and broke the line.

Well that was it as far as any further action was concerned. We all headed back in around 8.30am landing around 9.30am.

A nice paddle on a beautiful Spring day, especially for me as I had not been out for 2 months.
