issue Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Fished the carpark on board Noel Roberts Bertram 47 Sea Warrior on Monday and Tuesday. The fishing was pretty slow on Monday with fairly greenish cold water of around 20 deg. We managed a nice black marlin of around 90 kg on a lure and saw 1 other free jumper going stupid around us. Out of all the boats there we only saw 1 other fish being fought. On Tuesday it was even worse with the water almost khaki and cold. We hung around the pack until 2.30pm without seeing anyone turn a reel then headed for home to beat the blow. Pretty quiet, but it will pick up.

Scratchie Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Nice fish issue! The water is certainly colder than it should be but the weather is looking ok for Friday and Saturday. Just hope the wind improves too. I think it will start heating up from now though! Look forward to a few more reports over the coming weeks! Cheers scratchie!!!

Scratchie Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Was speaking to the owner of a local tackle store today. He went out Monday and went 7-6-5. Got me excited. The preferred method was skip baiting! Think everyone's opinion is differing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
issue Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 He was obviously somewhere else then. I prefer skip-baiting or switch baiting. At least you get the visual of the bite and the tease. Livebaiting is just so BORING, but it works I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
