  3. yeh the fin was probably mine it ended up being foulhooked in the gut on 24 it only was around 18kg we also lossed heaps of fish on friday including an albi of around 8-10kg on 6 matt
  4. hey mate u must have been the guys in the big white boat with outriggers. we went out to 140m on sunday but didnt turn a reel. we go the fish on a mackbait (bibless minnow) in mettalic blue and the water was 16.6 on saterday and 18.3 on sunday so im guessing the fin were siting just in front of the warm current matt
  5. hey guys over the weekend i headed down to greenwell point with my family and a mate on the friday night we fish the warf and managed 9 flathead on sp and live mullet. these ranged between 38 and 52 cm and amoung thses were my youngest brothers first two fish on sp. any way we woke up on the saturday morning to find a stiff brezze and a light shower but by 8.30 things started to clear up. dad, nick (my mate) and i headed out the bar to find a large but manageable swell and made the desision to trawl to the banks. about a third of the way out in 35m of water the tld 25 with 8kg starts sreaming and after 10 minutes of going round in circles and trying to stop the endless diving we finally saw colour it was called for a king well over 1m but as soon as it saw the gaff it took off. it was then after we noticed that it wasnt that fish but in fact a yellowfin of around 12kg that had a king follow him up. after much yahooing and high 5s we were on the radio to mates who came out straight away and also goy a yellow fin just slightly smaller. about 30 minutes later we had to head back in due to battery problems. on sunday it was much calmer so we set up a spread and started trawling to the banks. as we arrived we got a triple hook up on undersize kings and the rest of the day was spent catching travally and jigging under size kings. hears my first yellow fin it went 12kg and 97cm

    hey guys just came back from a weekend at swansea. on saterday we headed down the coast halfway between catherine hill bay and swansea and bottom bounced for a while. all we got was your usual reef speices consisting of jackets, wrasse, sargent bakers (including a big one on e plastic) and a suprize catch of a nice tarwhine. that afternoon we headed out for a quick session around moon island and found a school of salmon working. the were very finicky only taking the smallest sp we had but landed 2 around 50cm on 4lb tackle. on sunday we headed down towards catherine hill bay again but this time we found a school of much bigger salmon feeding on any thing that moved.first cast into the school and i was hooked up staight away. after 15-20 minutes of running around the boat and lossing large amounts of line i landed a pb 70cm salmon on 4lb. we managed one more salmon of around 67cm on 8lb and then lost the school. my 70cm salmon p.s for all the game fishos out there we heared of a few marlin being raised. matt
