Hi Guys

Took the son-in-law and grandaughter out of Vic Point yesterday for a few hrs mainly to spend a few hrs playing with the new Raymarine DS500x.

Found a few nice spots off the tip of Maclay. Big drop-off from 8' to 30' with a heap of fish showing on the edge.

Hooked 5 small sharks, 2 small squire and a grassy. All on the fresh prawns.

That was it. Couldnt get a bight on SP's, fresh prawns, squid or pillies.

We moved around a fair bit, found a lot of schools of fish but couldnt get a bight.

Too much fresh???

We tried from 5:30am to 11:00am

Mate, I heard the fish school has got hold of the EPA's plan and they've been teaching them to head to the protection zones early to get a spot before the last minute rush in a few weeks ;) :ohmy:

On a less serious note, I often get a good show on the sounder in that area but not an equivalent amount of satisfaction. Were you fishing right on the bottom or up a bit ?

Hi

We tried various depths and rigs.

The fish showed from 20' to 28' in 30' of water.

We could cast into a depth of 8' and have it drift down the drop off to 30'.

I'll give it another go there in a week or 2 to see if it is just me or maybe a Vic Point/fresh water thing.

The kids had fun, the sharks fought hard on light gear and it didnt rain. What more could you ask for apart from a couple of keepers.

Cheers
