I headed out to my usual whiting hunting ground.

As ususal, bagged out quite quickly with some descent whiting. I was even throwing nice size whiting back.

I think I was one of many that took to the water to avoid the heat.

Headed out to my whiting spot for a quick fish, then to Carnac for a swim.

The whiting were plentiful, with us taking a feed and throwing many back.

Biggesnsuprise for the day was my wife catching a descent squid on her size 8 whiting rig.

After that, I casted out a jig in hope for more.

I had watched the rod the whole time with no luck but as I reeled it in to leave. I had a little squid on tow.

Department of transport were greeting boat owners on the way in and fisheries research were meeting people on the was out.

You've got those whiting sussed, well done. I reckon saving one or two for Snapper baits after the ban would be an idea.
