May update

Its been a while since I posted an update and I have had several outings. I was in Portland for a night and spent a few hours in the evening and morning fishing the break wall with 6 barracouta, 4 flathead and a couple of wrasse caught. I fished from the kayak and paddled out along the curlewis bank on the suggestion of a tackle store customer but returned after 3 hours without a bight. I then tried the area beside Rippleside jetty where some recent dredging has created some good ledges and drop offs to 7m beside area that rises steeply to 3m. Covering this area on the drift landed me 10 flathead for the evening with 2 coming home for the pan. And finally I headed to Kyneton yesterday and caught about 12 or so redfin with most around the 25cm mark and a couple round 30cm with half the fish caught on hardbody lures and the others on squidgy plastics.
