In the last two weeks we have been out 7 times and bagged out on 6 of those trips - some of the spotties are huge. Got onto some big schools of Golden Trevally and even found some Permit feeding in about 3 foot of water one day when we went in to the beach for lunch. The trip we didnt bag out on saw us land two Giant trevally and came close to landing a small black marlin ( spat the hook at the boat, would have released it anyhow though ) just off the flats whilst trolling between feeding schools. Longtails have been sparse but the quality is awesome, some pretty big specimens amongst them. Sharks are incredibly thick from Moon Pt right the way up to Breaksea, although they are feeding spasmodically. Cobia seem to be scattered although afternoons seem to produce some very good fish on floated pillies in the right locations.

Cheers
