This time last year was off Surfers Paradise on my big brothers game boat. 30 miles out. Hit a school of yellow fin tuna. I landed 4, we had five lines out. At one stage four hook ups. it was bedlam. At one stage I was handling two rods. And standing, not in a chair. These were big fella's. First time I had ever been out on a big game boat. Just didn't feel as good as my first snapper outa the surf, which was a dream come true.
Oh and the fuel bill for the day was $1000)AUS).
Give me a beach anyday, four minutes from home. Nobody else around. Just me, the beach, and them lurkers I am about to entice to a little simple hook.
