10-15 knots, early morning or afternoon / early evening shift whatever suits the majority. It would be good to give the squidder a fitting fishing farewell.

Milt,

That sounds good Milt, looks like the weather will be alright :D

6am (or earlier) launch alright with you?

I'll bring along some snags to have a feed afterwards - check the Mango christmas thread and see what you think :wink:

I'm in for tomorrow. If it is to be Rickett's, I'm thinking i might hit the top end of the marine park on those 8-10m deep reefs, ~150-200m out from the park buoys (adjacent to fourth st). I might try to get out the before daybreak (daybreak around 6ish), and hopefully berley up something to make the drag sing. I'll look to launch around 5am from the Beaumaris Yacht Club

Ricketts sounds good, I really hope that wind stops blowing overnight though.
Squidette and I will aim for a 5:30 launch, might be closer to 6 though :wink: We'll keep an eye out for you dave, I think we'll drift with plastics or troll early, then maybe anchor up and berley once it gets lighter

Yes, and I didn't think to look at the weather before heading out. I figured by about 6.15/ 6.30, no one was going to pitch. Very blustery on shore but once out, it wasn't so bad. Some swell, but not too bad either.

Spent about 2 1/2 hours drifting with a double drop shot rig and a 4oz sinker for 2 hits/ 0 fish. Both hits came on the drop. Pretty much went straight out to the 12/13m mark and drifted back to the yellow bouy.

Had a nice chat to the yacht club boys coming in - they must have had 6/7 cats on the beach from about 5.30 on
