tugger got a reaction from charlie.hans.fishing in Southern GBR
Got out for an overnighter on the Sykes reef just east of Heron island. We had 2 boats and crew with perfect weather for the 2 days.
The 1st day we chipped away getting the odd coral trout, red throat emperor, tuskie and plenty of hussa. Anchoring on the western side of Sykes reef for the night both boats rafting up for dinner and a few drinks.
The 2nd day the fish chewed harder and I caught a couple of red emperor and a few more trout for the box. Other fish we got was moari cod, Moses perch, spangeled emperor and large trevally.
By lunch we had bagged out and it was time for a snorkel at Sykes. The other crew had never been into Fitzroy lagoon so we stopped there for another snorkel before heading home. Another top trip weather wise with the bonus of the best fish Nth Queensland can produce for us to take home.

Nice one Mark, nailed it as usual mate 🙂. Wish I could have made it. Dad had a mobile guy coming around this week to look at his motor issue so hopefully it's been rectified. Once it is we'll need to do a couple of trips in the bay to get confidence that it is sorted before taking it out over a bar or doing long distances.

Awesome mate. Few good fillets there. How good is it when the weather and the fish play along.

Awesome haul, I have always wanted to do a trip like that but always worry that with my luck the wind will be 40knots every day. 😥
I'll bite the bullet and book it in one day, my "Want to do" list keeps getting longer and longer.

We're doing a big trip to Moreton next year and the nav popped straight out my friends son wanted someone to get bogged so he could use our maxi Trax and there was another vehicle bogged in front of us and soon as I stopped on the uphill section I couldn't get going again without help so my mates son had some fun.

Looks like you all had fun on that trip, what time of the year did you go to get the calm winds? I live now in Hervey Bay and it seems to blow continuously up here.

The #Navlife looks proper bogged to the chassis there 🙂
Nice spacious campsite spot you found to fit everyone
