Stanage Bay First Time

[Fastboy]

Hi everyone,

Heading up to Stanage Bay for the first time in May. Hoping to get out to the Percy Islands and get into a few decent fish.

Can anyone plesae assist with some GPS starting points where we might get a couple. Any advice on the area including anchorages out at the Percys would also be great.

Cheers

Hoe that you have as good a trip as we did the first time. Very good mud crabs & VERY big tides.Havn't been that way for a few years but do remember the jacks right from the bank and the live mullet 8in long bitten in half .... if only a stinger rig!

Fastboy... All i can say is throw big poppers at any drop off on the outer islands... Oh.. use strong line!!!!! min 50lb...
