Well, i couldnt help myself, so with the blessings from the missus i headed off again just to make sure i wasnt dreaming last night. Fished from 3pm onwards, fish came on at around 5ish. Ended up with 1 barra 72cm and a nice grunter on placcies, with 5 missed hookups before the sun dipped below the horizon. The placcies that were working/drawing strikes were 70mm gary glitter squidgy fish, 80mm dropbear tails, 100mm black-gold tails. All on 8lb main, 30lb flurocarbon leader
cheers

Mate your on a roll with the fishing this weekend.
Nice to see all fish caught using plastic baits.
I bet the barra put up a fight.

Where are you based? The wind (20Knts or worse) has pretty much ruined the fishing this Easter weekend in Cairns :'( :( >:(
