Fishing North of Horsburgh Lighthouse
I went fishing again on Good Friday. Should have been in church, but found it too hard to pass up on a fishing trip to the wrecks north of Horsburgh. Checked windguru.com and was relieved that the weather would be flat calm. I had enough of rough seas during my youth. I much prefer soft breezes and flat water nowadays.
We set sail onboard a friend's 36 foot Grady at 9am. Although fully loaded, with 1,400 ltres of fuel, water and provisions for 3 days, we still managed to get the Grady to cruise at a decent 28 knots, burning 186 ltres of fuel an hour. In a short two hours, we were past Horsburgh. Then followed 3 glorious days of exciting fishing. The fish we targeted were not big, but they came fast & furious. The main bait was NTUC sotong. It's a popular belief that only kelong sotong works. Well apparently the fish at our spot don't mind the NTUC packaged ones either. The first night's highlight, 2 large Cobias, about 10 kg each.
In all we caught over 100 fish, mostly small table sized for eating
