Quick Trip To Hervey Bay

[RodHolder]

Hi Guys,

Went up north for the first time with a freind on the weekend, arrived Friday so we can fish All day Saturday & Sunday with Paul Dolan of Fraser Coast Sportsfing.

Pauul is a good bloke with a wealth of knowledge , operating a professional charter, great boat & really cares about the fishery.

Day One was too blowy, forcing us to fish close to shore, but we still managed a few fish, GT, Dart , Queenfish & Golden trevally...nothing of size but great fun on bream gear.

Day two, wind down allowd us to get out to Paul's special spots.

Multiple Double hook ups on GT's to 4 kg, Sweetlip, little mac tuna, mackeral,even a gomorah..

Best fish of the day a 10-12kg Bludger trevally that took me over 1.5 hrs on my 10-17lb rod and 2500 Certate.

Saw large turtles, stingrays flying out of the water & bait schools all around, catching 11 differnt species at an awesome place teaming with life.

Cant wait to go again.

cheers
