Hi Dan, on the drift... and there was a good drift.. I used the gps and kept doing the same drift line about 3 times.

NOT A BAD HAUL OFF BOTANY BAY HEADS... ALL FISH CAUGHT ON FRESH SKINNED OCTUPUS... GAVE THE MOWIES AWAY TO A NEIGHBOUR..... GOT MOST OF THEM IN 50 METRES DUE EAST OF THE HEADS. DRUMMO

SOME NICE PICS I TOOK A WHILE BACK DOWN AT A SECRET SPOT. DOWN BAWLEY POINT WAY.. IVE JUST JOINED THE FISHRAIDER SITE AND REGULARLY VENTURE OUT FOR MY OBLIGATORY FEED OF LIZARDS AND SNAPPER...... AND KINGS WITH THE DOWNRIGGER ME AND MY BROTHER HAVE STUMBLED ACROSS A GOOD SPOT IN 65 METRES WHICH APPEARS TO BE A MIXTURE OF SAND AND REEF. WEVE BEEN SCORING SOME NICE SNAPPER AND HEAPS OF MOWIES ( THEY TASTE FOUL ). WHEN WE LAST FISHED THE SPOT IT WAS FIRING AND AFTER AN HOUR AND A BIT THE FISH JUST WENT OF THE BITE STRAIGHT AWAY. SO I CHECKED THE TIDES AND IT WAS ABOUT 1 HOUR AND A BIT AFTER THE HIGH TIDE. DOES THE TIDE EFFECT OUTSIDE FISHING.. I WAS TAUGHT THE CHANGE OF TIDE WAS A GOOD TIME TO FISH AND AN HOUR BEFORE AND AFTER THE HIGH TIDE IS A GOOD TIME TOO. CHEERS DRUMMO TJF

GDDAY PETE, THANKS FOR THE WELCOMING INTRODUCTION.... MY BROTHER USES THE SITE REGULARLY AND WE HAVE A 6 METRE STACER AND REGULARLY HEAD OUT OF MAROUBRA AND OTHER OUTER REEFS... MATE I DO HAVE A QUESTION.. WE FOUND THIS GOOD SPOT WHICH APPEARS TO BE A MIXTURE OF SAND AND REEF IN ABOUT 65 METRES. WEVE BEEN GETTING SOME NICE SNAPPER THERE AND LOTS OF MOWIES . DO TIDES AFFECT THE WAY FISH BITE OUT THAT DEEP. I NOTICED THE FISH WENT OFF THE BITE VERY QUICKLY EXACTLY ONE HOUR AFTER IT HAD REACHED HIGH TIDE.....IVE HEARD THAT THE CHANGE OF TIDE IS VERY GOOD WITH AN HOUR EITHER SIDE OF THE CHANGE GOOD. DRUMMO
