offtap1 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hi all hit botany today for a change picked up a dismal 3 yakkas at molls point and headed for wide fad, on way decided to try close fad first, arrived at fad 7am to find a few small Dollies hugging close to fad water temps were 21.4Deg but couldnt hook up , had one good hit but dropped with temps this high thought far Fad would be producing but after another 9ks of shit seas found far Fad half under water due to current and absoliutely no activity, gave it a bash for a while before heading to Peak for quick jig session for ziltch, drifted across top close Fad to find nothing there this time, maybe should have persisted at this Fad for a bit longer but thems the breaks Eh , NO PICS OBVIOUSLY Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hal Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 The water temp ,is nothing to what it should be for some good dollies,Waste of time going out the way the water temp is at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassin Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 The warmer water is still up north around the 24 -25 degree mark off Port Macquarie. Sydney atm in close starts around 18 degrees and works up to high 22,s the further you head out. Off wollongong there is a massive patch of water in the 23.5 degree temp mark, this water is around the canyons, and looks to be the goods. We may see the temperature breaks we are looking for off Boatany this time next week. Cheers Assassin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo62 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 The warmer water is still up north around the 24 -25 degree mark off Port Macquarie. Went out to the FAD at Port Macquarie yesterday. 26.4 Degrees, but not a dolly in sight! Bloo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
