  1. Got out on Friday and then a again on Sunday mixed bag of reefies from boat rock on both days. Plus a few squid in the bay on the way home.Sunday was hard going due to the amount of boats deciding to drift close enough to shake hands to where we were anchored every time. Pulled hooks on a good mackerel near the boat due to no gaff but was good to get out again it’s been ages.
  2. Might head out tomorrow before all the weekend crowds get in on the action a report to come
  3. I drive multiple times a year 7and a half hours north towing a boat to fish the Capricorn coast reefs because the fishing is just that good.
  4. Hard to beat a morning like that mate, good on ya
  5. Prawns are back in the southern bay usual haunts just look for boats. Not sure how long they will hang about
  6. Was a bit green but not too bad fish were def on the chew
  7. Sorry was a bit slack with the reporting didn’t really take many photos , fishing was pretty good, went and got some livies and anchored up at boat rock. Hooked two good Spanish floating livies out the back, but landed none. One bit through my wire trace( was only using 40lb single strand) and the other pulled hooks. Plenty of nice reefies made up for it though. Just had to get past the kingfish. Got some great Moses perch nice and fat, kept a smaller kingfish for the smoker, decided to call it early and go check my pots. First two pots had none, third one had seven and last one had two. It was a petty about the Spanish but I Was pretty stoked to have nine sandies and some good reefies and be back at the ramp before midday. Not bad for a solo session.
  8. Unreal mate some top quality trout there. Well done!!
  9. Thanks guys I’ll see if I can rustle up a feed hopefully I don’t hit anything running across the bay might have to wait until first light until I leave the ramp which I’m not a fan of. cheers Hamish I’ll be chasing some dollies first up out wide probably then hopefully some reefies in the arvo
  10. Hopefully all three lol but maybe not with the price of fuel gonna go tomorrow before the weekend crowds arrive
  11. Hi all, it’s been months since I’ve been out offshore mainly due to weather and work not agreeing with each other. Next three days look pretty decent. Just wondering if any one has been out the front of south passage or up the cape since the flood? Just wondering what water quality is like in close offshore mite still be better to head wide
  12. Thanks db I might give it a go some time if I see a smaller man be when I’m squiding
  13. Hi drop bear, I have eaten them overseas and thought they were pretty nice. Caught plenty here as by arch but all were released. I would like to try one some time any tips on cleaning and preparing/ filleting?
  14. We’ll done Hamish and Charlie. Your youthful enthusiasm and dedication to fishing never cease to amaze. Reminds of my times growing up on the Brisbane and Bremer river. I get stoked every time I see one of your reports and that golden threads colour pops up well done!!
