Bad wind (seawards type of wind!)
Bad swell
Fish that would not take the fly at all!!
A real crappy morning Swoffing
Got the cast right in amongst frenzied fish many many times and only three takes
Two on for second or two
One on till at side of boat and it slips the hook - poop!
Mostly largish (50-70cm) queenfish
Had to chase them all over the place as they moved rapidly around the area chasing schools of 2inch bait
They were in the area between the two marker bouys off Mandorah jetty
Changed flies lots of times to find the fly to match the bait but just too much bait moving through and fish quite nervous of approaching boat
After a few frustration hours went back to ramp, as the swell and chop seemed to be angled in at all my favourite rock bars and current junctions,make casting and everything else difficult
When Back to ramp I find Trailer is broken where cross beam meets side bar!!!!!!!!! (But I am lucky it has lasted this long as rusted through in abut 20 places for quite a while now)
Home by midday
All in all a mostly f&$@#d up day
But will be out next weekend with Aussie Pete in his boat
