Macquarie Head Salmon fest.

We are camping overnight at Macquarie heads which is the outlet to the bay the Gordon runs into. $ 5 per site is good with toilets. We tried a fish but it was way to windy so set up camp.
Later we headed back to the beach for another go and on the first cast I thought what a bloody snag but it was Salmon as soon as the lure hit the water a strike. For 5 minutes there got 10 hits and landed 4 on shore it was full on. About bloody time this is fishing the way it should be, well at least every now and then. It quietened off for a little while but we fished for about 45 minutes with 10 salmon (3 of which I gave to a couple who walked past) and lost as many if not more. So many in ½ a foot of water they get off the hook and swim to safety. We both caught fish today and that is nice although I still think that Tina is up plenty since we started fishing together but I’m catching up.
