Just wondering if it is worth the journey for some Dollies.... any about?

Hi BillyD Mate i went out with FISHBONES and JIM77 yesterday and there were a few little dollies but the were'nt interested in anything, if that would help you decide wether its worth on going or not. Good luck anyways.

hi lala

What water temp did you have out there.Did you try live bait for the dollies.

i was out all day 2day.. no dollies off broken bay..

only had 20.5C went 2 fad and found heaps of bouys.. none in sight,

we were loaded with livies but never get 2 use them

What were the weather conditions like baggin out.

[olitay]

yeah prob not the greatest.. was pretty sloppy in the morning punching into a nth easter of around 15-20knts.. and the swell was maybe 1.5-2m and heaps close 2gether.. could only manage around 13knts on way out.. but started 2 calm down (a little) late morning.. then blew up again just after lunch..

when we were coming through heads it was a mess, had that massive tide running out and swell and wind meeting it head on...

was rougher then i have seen some notorious bar crossings...

Really, where where you heading out from and what were you in?

Hi NIC-NAT, the transducer snapped off my boat last week must of hit

something so no sounder yesterday , but bought a new

better one just need to get it fitted. The water looked nice but would

only be guessing as to the temperature.We found the dollies under a

small floating log and tried live yakkas and small trolled skirts for no

response.

Headed out on the 10th off Sydney, there were none about at the Botany FAD, just some undersized Kingfish.

Temp needs to rise a couple more degrees.

There were flying fish everywhere too, all about the size of big dragon fly. Though nothing was harassing them.
