Novice fisher persons departed 4am Saturday 27/10 from West Beach. Journeyed across Gulf to reported good grounds out from Edithburg (Tapley Shoals). |
Found ledges but no bottom action. Moved several times along with 6 other keen prospectors, still no underwater movement. Kilos of berley used but no beep action on sounder, with lull in wind headed back across gulf. |
Some 100 litres of fuel later, sat at Glenelg Tyre Reef & filled butchers tub with mackerel to 3lbs. Motto of fisher person story - can't catch feed without food for feed. |
