06:03am - 2.44m
12:07pm - 5.44m
17:45pm - 3.51m
23:48pm - 5.95m
These above tides weren't very good because 3.51m deep of the low tide at 17:45pm was too much water to go to the rocks at Ben's point, Point A and Point B.
And it'll be too hot to catch a Barramundi in the daytime.
It was thought that the only chance for catching a barramundi should be in the early morning today.
2.44m deep of the low tide at 06:03am was low enough to go to those rocks.
So I went to Point B this morning.
The tide was coming in.
The water was murky.
The surface of the water was slightly wavy.
These conditions like above were good.
First, I caught a small Rockcod.
Second, I caught a big Stingray with RAPALA XRD08 /Glass Ghost.
My Fireline 14lb kept going arond 50m out of spool.
I could wind those lines back in to my spool.
And I almost finished reeling lines.
But the lines broke with a snap.
It took 20 minutes.
Moreover, the fish's gone with RAPALA XRD08 / Glass Ghost.
I had to leave from the rocks because of the dangerous incoming tide when I lost fish and my lure.
Complete failure came from catching a Stingray!
I don't like Stingray.
