Cruised down the coast past Sloop Rocks and Birthday Bay and had a look in Hibbs River,there was an abalone mothership anchored in a sheltered Cove we went in and around to see what was going on,a dive boat just coming alongside to unload their catch.
Motored down to the preferred anchorage behind the Pyramid just as
Maatsyker,Patternmaker,Crispian and Bunderberg were anchoring,waited a bit while they got settled as the sand does not go all the way in to the bay here.
We anchored and there was plenty of activity all the afternoon ,people fishing and setting what cray gear they had,some pots and rings.Bill went into action with his new small craypot.We had problems with little couta biting the hooks of the lines,unbelievable sharp teeth,got some fish in the net though.
My crew distributed the salmon fillets we had caught yesterday,very welcome by all accounts.
We up anchored late in the day and set our pots outside on some bottom I had used before.
Returned to the anchorage and had Vickes chicken dish for dinner.The ab boat came in and anchored pretty close to us,a bit inconsiderate as his pump engine went all night,not too bad though,they were gone when we rose in the morning.
Flat calm with no swell.
