1 mile sunday 26 october 2008

went out of seaworld on sunday at around 2pm.Fished untill around 5pm.I caught heaps of slimy mackerel as bait and one even got taken by this mac tuna

It was a hard paddle out into the northerly wind...which was around 15knots but easy coming back.

Sunday 12 october Tugun Desalination Plant

Headed out to the platform early...hoping to get a cobia...there is lots of bait if you jig right next to the pipes....but that seems all there is ...no takers on the fish front..water still between 18 and 19C...not good.

palm beach afternoon fish saturday 11 october 2008

went out for an afternoon fish at palm beach gold coast.Slight wind a few showers.Jigged up a few yakkas hoping for a cobia...instead managed a mac tuna which was released.Water seems to be warming up!!!

palm beach 5 october 2008

weeks of northerly winds brings in cold ,green,brown water....absolutely no fish in these conditions...

27 september 2008 18...fathoms seaway gold coast

Got out to the 18 fathoms today.A top day,light northerly wind,but a current running north to south at about 2km!!..We got heaps of bait in the morning in red eye pilchards and yakkas.We were hoping for a cobia,but to no avail.We did manage two mactuna.The water was cold and green.

the cobia that got away

this giant of a cobia was hooked in 20 fathoms of the gold coast.it was fought for over two hours before breaking away at the trace...next to the kayak....to the disapointment of the angler.This is the month that the cobia should start showing up in numbers of the coast.

15 september report of the seaway

A mate stuart managed to get out for a fish of the seaway banks on the 15 september 2008.It has been a hard month fishing wise with persistent north easterlies and as a result the water colour is green and cold...but amazingly he still manages this beautifull 19.5kg longtail tuna!!!!!
