I dedicated to safe driving and got to the Channel Island within an hour by my new 150cc scooter.
The sea water was clear.
That gave me a sense of safety while I was wading through the shallow water because I would trip on the rocks under the water if the water was murky.
The water was cold.
The tide was going out.
I stopped at the big rocks in the middle of wading and then cast my lure.
Soon, I caught an average sized rockcod.
I waited till the outgoing tide permitted me to wade through the shallow water to the mud flat.
The productive fishing window wasn't long at the mud flat.
First I caught a 56cm barramundi on Squidgy Pro Mongrel.
To compare with the wet season's barramundi, the dry season's barramundi are powerful and more beautiful.
It's a prime seafood.
July 25, 2015 56cm barramundi #964
Land based, Darwin, NT, Australia
Squidgy Pro Mongrel 90mm Drop bear
Second, I caught a 51cm rockcod on Lucky Craft Beefreeze.
That is unusual that I catch a nice sized rockcod of equal to or above 40cm by land based in Darwin.
Rockcod #331 56cm rockcod
It's a prime seafood.
Lucky Craft Beefreeze 78mm Black/Gold Suspended minnow
Rockcod #332 on Rapala Flatrap 105mm Chrome #6 hooks
Rockcod #333 on Sebile Swingtail 85mm #6 hooks
Towards sunset I began to go home.
The dry season in which the temperature is low permits me to carry these fish to Darwin by my scooter.
I will make some prime fish and chips with these dry season's fish.
Mr. Callum Gumball made these fish holders for me.
I can concentrate on the driving.
