Yup, this is where I was. Didn't seem to matter, not many nets out at S. Bowen for anyone either. I'll try the hump more often now to get the "drift" of things.

Heading out Sunday. We’ll see what website is right about the wind.......if my favourite site is correct, I’m headed to thrasher.

Fished thrasher 7-9. Dead quite.

Back at it at sunrise.

HITW. 1 keeper caught at 120. Lots of bait schools. Water is dirty but them seem to be deeper this year. Ya really got to work for them. But nice for a quick out in the morni g.

Did you see any anchovy schools?

 

[Gator]

Anchovy about 3" found in the stomach.

QA all day...1 keeper couple little guys, lotsa junk in the water, excellent crab haul....

 

[Nasty017]

Very slow locally. Popper at HITW. Right off the first drop. Poor buddy’s first time out this year, naturally he lost it. Moved to south Bowen. 2 smalls. Moved to QA on the way home. Nadda.

 

[SteelyDan]

Will be out on the hunt tomorrow. First time in a year!

We took home a 6,7,8, and 9 pounder at Thrasher today out of 8 fish that came to the boat ......... the other four were all legal size too.

Irish Cream , Cookies and cream and an army truck hoochie all worked nicely.

Still looking for that elusive teener that others have been able to find.

Rather bouncy out there ........ trolling with the waves was the way to go. Riggers were at 110 and 130 and we were in 600-700 ft of water.

Been reading a few reports that things were slow but we seemed to find success today ........ not sure what constitutes slow ........... number of fish or duration between hits ? ........... both were acceptable for us today .... lol.
