Went one better today, going 1 from 2 bites. Both fish were solid, I ended up tagging and releasing an est 160kg blue, the largest fish I have ever caught.

Just keeps getting better up here!

I think it's mostly flying fish. A lot of that scatter is just scatter on the sounder, but there is a bit of bait around but not sure what it is.


Just up with the family at bermi at the end of February for a week. Comp is labour day weekend, I'll be up there then too.



Went 3-3-3 today, will post some photos when o get round to it, I'm immobilised on the couch at this point in time

Haven't seen any sails unfortunately.

Went 1-1-1 today on blues, and dropped a black on the leader on the way in.

Cyclone on the way, this should be fun :cheers:
