queensland Got my MOJO Back

[Shane69]

Its being a while since i had a good mackerel session.

I was planning to go to palm beach today but the weather put me off. I was sitting at home all morning wondering if i should fishing or not with BOMs predicted weather. I just wanted to be out in the water so i convinced my mate to go in the bay.

We headed out around 12 to go try our luck on mackerel. Weather was a bit lumpy at first and it just dropped back.

Looked around for birds but nothing. Tried a few spots i have caught mackerel before. There was bait but nothing. Drove around a bit until i saw a good show on the sounder. Dropped down jigs n plastics and started reeling them in.

All up landed 7 school mackerel. Dropped about 9 next to the boat, There was a few big ones that we dropped. Didnt hook on properly. Got cut off about 5 times too.

Back to the ramp by 4 pm. Was going to stay longer but mate had to go somewhere.

All up it was a good short session.

Cant wait to go out and give the macks another crack before they dissapear. No spotties today. Also saw alot of tuna in bay, Couldnt be bothered with them today lol

Where abouts did you see the tuna in the bay

Tuna came up around the measured mile, macs im pretty sure and long tails infront of rous n around harries. No birds though random bust ups. We tried for long tails for bit but had to come back i reckon at the tide change they would have started feeding actively. Didnt hang around long enough.

My mates went to peel today n they said tuna all around south west rocks and in the rainbow n around south passage. They got a few mac tuna n snapper all arvo.

Haha it was good. We were only boat out. Few boats at mud n harries.

The schoolies were so thick today for a while. Good late run.

It was my mates first time catching them too n he had a ball i dont think he has ever had his heartlander scream that much.

He would have caught more if he listened from the start .

He had blisters all over his hand from jigging. Priceless

Cant wait to go out again. I have realised i dont belong at palm beach. Bays our play ground for mackerel
