queensland Quick Trip To Mud

[Allnighter]

Well with a friday off work and with a wet and windy weekend coming, i pondered the thought of heading to Mud for a quick solo session. 

Checked the radar, didnt look too bad and besides the weather bureau always seem too early in their predictions. Lol

So hooked the tinny up, grabbed the rain coat and headed out.

ZERO trailers at the boat ramp, yep its official i'm the only mad idiot.

Conditions ended up being not too bad  across to Mud's western side.

Arrived at spot x, hit spot lock on the minny and enjoyed the serenity while looking back at brissy's ominous weather.

Anyways, landed a couple of good eating size snaps around the 65 cm range.

Headed home before dusk, made it safely back and happy i went afterall.

I should add that although wet, the forecast was only for 10-15 easterlies.

Cracker mate, well done braving the forecast and coming up trumps.

Good decision to go, in the end. You can't catch them sitting at home.

A quiet Mud Island is a rarity and produces the goods it seems.

It is often said that the key to Mud is avoiding the crowds and boat traffic.  Seems like you did that and came up trumps. Nice fish. Thanks for sharing.

Nice one mate. Good to see they're still around. What's your secret bait?

Yes definately agree about fishing during the quieter times with no boat traffic. It makes that much difference.

We had some great snapper fishing results in the bay around Green Island particularly this year.

Baits depend on time of year. This time was on fresh local squid. 

Looking forward to exploring some of our old marks with my sons, and spending some time around the more southern bay islands soon, along with those damn mozzies...... ☺
