Sydney Harbour Tuesday/Wednesday

[lazz120589]

Hey all just a quick report.

Headed out on the harbour a few mornings this week . Tuesday headed out of the rocks near south head . Didn't get to much action , started off with a small bream then nothing for a while before hooking up to a nice little salmon. Went out with a mate on his boat early morning wednesday and managed to get a little Bonnito on a popper , wasn't much but definently a good way to start off another day at work !

Few pics attached. Thanks

Nice work mate, its actually a frigate mackerel/small mack tuna rather than a bonito.

Photo 3 is not a bonito. Can see a couple of spots under the body, and looks like a mackerel tuna.

Thanks for the info guys. Only started getting back into fishing again this summer so not really 100% on all species . Used to head out with dad alot more when i was younger. Fun day hopefully get some more soon!

It may well be a Mac Tuna,but the definitive difference is that the Macs have a connection between dorsal fins;

and the Frigates have a gap-hard to tell from the angle of that picture.

The spots make it more likely to be a Mac Tuna-they both go hard!
