Good stuff. I've lived in gladdy my whole life but only started hitting the reef a yr ago and made a rule of no bait , so it's been a good learning curve. Slowly picking it up

Thanks mate. Honestly they all have there days. I only fish the shallows 90% of the time so most are similar. 

[aussie123]

It's a top spot up there.

I get up there all the time and spend 3 days out on the reefs.

Was up there last week and the fishing was brilliant.

Hey mate, great fish you got there. good to see you on the site. I was up there this time last week, it's a great spot. We got into the reefies on bait and plastics but I might have to throw a few poppers and stick baits next time I'm up there by looks of it

Yeah mate. Last wk was pretty good on the fish. How hot was it out there though??. Haha. Had to get in the drink a couple of times just to cool down

Cheere mate , be careful throwing stickbaits as it's highly addictive.  Hahaha. You'll be hooked in no time

It was very hot.

We went out really wide for a look on the third day and the water was 30 degrees, not much cooler than the air temps.

Yeah Sef you will like these reports. Spoke to Troy a lot in PNG about this sort of fishing and he was nice enough to hook me up with a popping set up over there.

What amazes me about Troys photos as they all look to be a few meters of water but consistently big trout.

Fascinating how the trout change colour from deep to shallow as well.

Welcome to the site mate and thanks for the report, some cracking fish there in tight country. Looking forward to many more

[jon]

@AngusYeah the colour change is pretty cool if you have a look at some of the pics from my trip there were quite a few that were patchy which I'm guessing they had just been through a change

For sure. If I can find a stretch of days sometime in the next few months, I'll run up to Gladstone. I'll be happy to go wherever.
