Bundaberg to Hervey Bay

We left Bundaberg just after 6am so we could take advantage of the tides/currents.  We had light head winds and a beautiful blue sky.   


Rich was trailing a lure behind the boat as he has done almost every day we have sailed and just after getting off the phone to mate telling him we’ve hardly caught anything, bang goes the reel.  Luke noticed it first and then it was ‘battle stations’ we eased off the power, furled the headsail and Rich grabbed the rod.  It took Rich about 10 minutes to reel in the fish.
