my03 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 (edited) hey guy's i picked this nice fish up yesterday in the harbour, it was caught on pearl green 3 inch power minnow, squidgy finesse jighead, 6lf fireline and 15lb leader. can someone confirm it's a watson's bonito? seems they are subtropical? my mate also got a esturary cod in the same sitting, whats going on with the water temps these days? are they warming up? i thought esturary cod was subtropical/tropical species as well? tight lines!

Yeeros Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Mate that sure is a watson's leaping bonito. Did anybody else get anything at clifton gardens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lighthouse2k Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 They have been a semi regular catch for the past 3 seasons... As common as a samson or amberjack on the catch rate I would think. Good kingfish bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsRule Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 They seem to come in every year, from what i have seen , not in large numbers though. I caught a couple last year around little manly, got these 2 a few weeks back at clifton gardens , seems to be a few around this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
