Thread: May Trip up North......

  1. #1

    May Trip up North......

    Headed a bit further North again this year with the main goal being to try and nail a BIG GT land based.The fishing was a bit slower than last years trip up but we managed some nice fish off the jetties and rocks.
    In total I saw five absolute enormous GT's which on each occasion gave chase after poppers but didnt strike....
    On one occasion I had a HUGE black GT just cruise in behind a Halco Roosta pop and make me shake then shy away...would have been 30kg with ease.They seem to be moody like kings...
    The queenies were harder to find this year but got a few nice ones along with reds,sweetlip,trout,cod,small GT's....all on plastics & poppers.
    Also saw countless turtles,sharks and for the first time dugongs....
    They are the weirdest things ever....
    All in all another great trip away.

    Cheers,
    Pete
