Paul and Mark were back again along with Dan and Eric. Hopes were high for chasing kingies after jigging good bait and getting a few Sunday arvo. As it turned out the bait was hard to get and then when we got to the AJ/Kingy spot they didn’t want to chew either. We headed to… Continue Reading

Paul and family were on this one. We tried hard, had good shows but it didn’t happen. I can’t find the fish in close just yet. There are no encouraging reports from friends and contacts either. The only highlight was a Mack Tuna everyone got a turn on fighting.… Continue Reading
Steve had booked this in with Alvin and making up the numbers were a couple of Steve’s mates. We started off jigging bait. For once it came easy and we filled the tank. We headed to an AJ/Kingy Spot and first drift a couple of the boys hooked up. With the result of a couple… Continue Reading

Mark chose to fish the bottom as he had caught enough snapper on the previous few trips and did quite well on moses perch and other reefies off the bottom. Once again on… Continue Reading
Rick and Ross jumped at the chance early on to get in on this trip and making up the crew were Ryan and Mark. I had heard where some good live bait was so we headed there. It looked good enough on the sounder but we only jigged about half a dozen baits off it.… Continue Reading
Jim and quickly becoming regular Mark were up for this trip. We headed off straight to the snapper spot and settled in for the afternoon. Once again it took a while to get going but I struck early blood with an 88cm snapper on 20lb on a soft plastic. One of Jim’s that had to… Continue Reading
We decided to go as it was the only morning the guys could get out even though there was a bit of SW blowing. We stayed in close and fished all the areas I fihed in the Creek to Coast shoot. It was a fair bit slower but we got a few and headed in.… Continue Reading
