Bill Hayes Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Sorry Ken, I made a blunder. The fish on the kitchen bench is what we call a kingfish. I should know. I've landed 3 of them on spear. Many reckon they taste better in the south where I am because the further north you go into warmer waters they contain worms apparently. I really like our kingfish as sashimi or island style from the belly. Fish ID has never been my strong point even after spending lots of hours in the water. I guess I just go after target species and ignore everything else. It's also interesting to see what different fish look like underwater, especially when deeper as the colour changes. Coral trout look a green/brown colour and blend in to the reef but are bright red when at the surface due to the red filtering out at depth.
Bill Hayes Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 The weather gods actually smiled on us down here in Melbourne. Got out in Port Phillip Bay and landed a couple of nice flathead. 3
MPfit Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Wife and I played around on new flats boat we just got. Not an exciting catch, but first official fish on the boat!

Hammer Smokin' Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 oh I'm so very jealous. we have some nuke plant winter fishing, but it means breaking ice to the warm water discharges, then catching trout species...with the odd smallie mixed in. great fishing man!! enjoy.

prodigy Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 No sir. Most of our tournaments this time of year are on a nuclear power plant lake. Water temps in the high 70s downlake, high 60s uplake. Fished a tournament there on Sunday and had three in the livewell before they’d released the last boats (field of 120). What lake/state? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk Squaw Creek is the lake...the cooling body of water for the Comanche Peak nuclear power plant in Glen Rose, TX. Now that the tournament season has started we have been on two non-powerplant lakes...water temps in the low 50s mostly...much tougher fishing

There's lake Anna in Virginia that has a "hot side" from the nuclear plant. I think it never drops below 68°, but that's from memory so don't quote me. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
