A couple of mates and i are heading up to Cow Bay / Cape Tribulation for a week or so in November to visit a friend and want to fit in a fish or three. What should we be expecting land based around that time of year. I would love to find some pelagics of any description spinning, what are the chances ?. Also is it worth doing a half or full day charter as well chasing reef fish etc ( marlin fishing is too dear ), i am guessing yes on that one so can anyone recommend a charter.

Any tips or suggestions as to what to target and what sort of gear to take would help a lot as i have never been up that far before.

Cheers
Scott
