20-25 kn though mate...

be careful out there, hope you get a few.

yes it has come up a bit since the other day when i checked

anyone heading out off shore saturday with the westerly should be ok on the other side of the island

32 minutes ago, Drop Bear said:

Yep that was what I was thinking but it looks like it goes to the surface? Unless it is zoomed in. 

yes only showing the first 6meters from the bottom been told it looks like bait and some fish but there not feeding

that is a good spanish bet it got the heart pumping

we  had a pretty good start with 3 snapper and a nice parrot and a good cod but had to cut the day short as kurt got a spine through his hobit toe from a 50 odd snapper.any thought what this migh be on the sounder?

Awesome trip mate. Makes me sad that I went to Moreton instead of offshore on the boat haha. 

I had no idea nannies came down this far. Great to know. Is that a new thing?

Those thumpers make the others look tiny. Great stuff mate I am glad you enjoyed the feed and thanks for the read. 

Oh and was it the Pearl Perch that spat out the ciggy butt? 

with reports of reds coral trout and nannies they could move south in the warmer months
