Leeder’s Creek fishing trip

Headed off to Leeders today, note that I should try to get there before sunrise, because the sun is exactly in your eyes, plus the dust of the road, was very difficult to drive.

Got:
Me: 45cm Queenfish, 2 bucks
mate: reasonable goldie, large cod 60+ cm

Story of the trip:
The largest crab was caught on fishing line! I thought I had a tree or something when I got a glimpse of the crab I slowly lowered him and got my mate to get the net… he plunged it in and I gave my best guess of placing him over it while we pulled it up… as soon as he saw daylight he dropped the bait but dropped right into the net! He was 19cm, but a bit empty.

Boat problems:
Boat was okay but some pinhead (me) forgot to put the clip down of the trailer… how I drove there and launched without it coming off is a mystery but it went bang taking the trailer in. Saftey chain to the rescue!!
