queensland Bakers Dozen Offshre

[tugger]

Headed offshore wilth Brock and Lauchlan on sunday found a few moses perch early in shallow then headed a bit deeper around 10am and found some snapper biting eneded up with a bakers dozen in the esky. Best snapper went 65cm and the sea conditions were perfect with hardly a breath of wind all morning took a few pictures once we got home.

Nice bag there @tugger.  Hopefully a good snapper season coming up?

Nice one Mark, good haul. Were you expecting pearlies at any of the spots?

[Luvit]

The weekend conditions looked favourable,  good to see you  took advantage of it. 

This weekend not so good conditions.

Nice bag of fish Mark.

Things look very promising considering where and when you caught those snapper.

Bring on the winter snaps.

[Panther]

You did better than us!

I was out Sunday offshore out from southern Moreton Is. with a client boss Sunday from 6am and returned about 3pm. Things started very slow through until about 11am, when we managed to "partially" redeem ourselves with 9 fish over the remaining hours. No snapper in your 65cm range though.

Live baits were out fished by squid!!?... and any other old stinky bait for that matter (pilchards, mullet etc..).

I sure we were. There were plenty of boats out taking advantage of the weather. Of all the 4 boats in our "team" we actually caught the most keepers. 

We fished in 60 to 100m of water but had most success shallow in 60-70m.

[Drop Bear]

Nice fish thanks for the report.
