Turkey beach run

[tugger]

The weekend come around with some good weather so we hit up the reef out of Turkey beach for a few days. The coral trout were good quality along with big red throat and cod.

We snorkelled around lunch on Saturday in the shallows then we anchored up Saturday night in the same spot and had a glass out on Sunday.

A few sharks got some of our big trout but most fish made the deck. I'm already keen to do another trip up there fingers crossed for good weather.

Nice work, @tugger.

Is that a new rig I see ?

You have to be happy with that tasty esky, Mark. Ramp would have been a bit quieter than 1770.

I've changed the North V South comp to monthly (in case you missed it). So, if you've got some pics on a brag mat etc, you can post them up. South needs to answer @crazywalrus's entries for North. The secret signal is to have your hand in the pic.

I'll remember that for next time now we got photos going again.

Very nice, ya gotta love a red esky. 

Get most on bait or jigs? I've struggled with the jigging, finding bait is working for me mostly, unless throwing stickbaits over the flats.

Mostly baits we did have a mate flicking soft vibes for a while and got quiet a few fish.
