Several barrels caught and more lost today at Portland, the one below caught on Sharkmen Charters on a frosty Jaks Barrel Bullet, weighing 114kg. Plenty of smaller ones caught too and good tuna numbers at Port Mac also.
Andrew Westlake saw no tuna from shore to shelf but had a drift in 80m and scored a nice 39 m Nannygai and Gavin caught a 49cm rock ling. He also enjoyed a nice sunrise.
Scotty Gray didn’t find tuna at Port Fairy and there were only a few caught on blind strikes.
Scotty has been amongst the trout again during the week too, putting one to good use in the smoker.
