Intended on putting in at the playground area of Bobbin Head as I wanted to try upstream this time. Was disappointed that the gate was locked (5:50 am) so I went to the boat ramp at Apple Tree Bay (ATB). Peddled up past the Marina for a small tailor on a 6 inch sluggo. Had some interest in this as I was leaving ATB too, but nothing took it seriously.

Tried some SPs near an old concrete barge. The bargain basement Gulp SP seemed more popular but they kept chewing the tails off. Might try some smaller ones next time. I did pick up about a 35 cm flattie on a small Atomic pumpkin coloured paddle tail.

Overall it was pretty windy, but not a bad morning and I was back home eating eggs and bacon with the kids at 9 am – I do love this kayak fishing

You may not have got onto the biggies, but it would have been a nice workout.

I don't like to get up early, but I like to get out early as I rarely have caught much past 11:30 am anyway. Getting home by lunch time keeps me in reasonable terms with the wifew and ensures more fishing opportunities.

The difficulty is staying awake during the rest of the day. Made it yesterday but nodded off at the end of 60 Minutes last night

Ok - almost to the end of 60 Minutes :wink:

It's a bugger that. Usually doesn't get un-locked till after 7 some time. ATB is where I usually launch from and paddle back if heading up the creeks. But now I've made my yak cart, I think I'll just park at the gate and carry/cart it down.
