| Sunshine Reef was hot, hot, hot this week and the coral trout
were well and truly on the bite. Local angler 'Woody' fished the southern
end of the reef away from most of the pelagic activity and was rewarded
with two 'Trout', top weight 5.5kg. |
With the murk clearing from the inner reefs the Spanish
mackerel were in full on feed mode at Sunshine Reef. Stephen McCord was
out there on Saturday doing a spot of bottom bashing but his pilchard
baits (and line) kept getting bitten off by the mackerel. Playing the
odds he managed to hook and land three Spaniards (8kg to 10kg) before
heading for home.![]() |
Angus Smith was bottom bashing at North Reef on Thursday
when his squid/pilchard combo was taken by the 23kg cobia he's posing
with. He also boated a yellowfin tuna and a few moses perch, squire
and parrot fish but who's counting.![]() |
And the day before at North Reef, Jason Massey from
Griffith and Charlie Eggers from Brisbane (below) hit the jackpot
when they boated these two quality fish; an 8kg snapper and 11kg jewfish.
Their baits? Live slimy mackerel.![]() |
| As already mentioned, the Spanish mackerel seemed
to be everywhere this week. Daniel Mackle and Ben McKenna from
Brisbane (below) got their 7kg and 9kg (est) Spaniards on Sunday's
Cougar
One full day charter to Double Island Point. |
