Catch Log
8.00am - 1 Spotted Sickle Fish using Mortician’s Rig
8.45am - 2 Sand Whiting using Mortician’s Rig, become stringray bait
9.30am - 1 Diamond tuskfish using Mortician’s Rig, release due to small size
10.00am - 1 Tripod fish using Mortician’s Rig, release due to small size
10.45am - 1 eel using Mortician’s Rig, become stringray bait
2 starfishes release as they are inedible

If you ever wonder how your bait got eaten, but the rod  does not have any sudden movement, chances are the starfishes are helping themselves to the bait. When I retrieve the bait, the hook in the starfish’s mouth. 

Eels and sand whiting are stingrays’ favourite food, anglers often use them as bait. Eels are only eaten by crabs or rays, thus it is quite safe to just cast the bait out and wait for a few hours before retrieving the bait to check is it still there.
