Nice Hoo. How do you do the poppering? Just on the top of Hutchies or around the bait schools?
I can see a mid weeker coming up. Thurs looks best but the window is closing.

Gday On The Chew,
It sure was busy there this morning! Well done on your Wahoo Gordo!
I was the Bertram 25 that passed you at Hutchies a few times. We had a good day, double and triple hook ups on Wahoo, Mahi Mahi and Blacks. We couldnt keep a Marlin on all day, and had some good strikes and fish in the spread.
Ended up with 6 Wahoo, a Mahi Mahi and 2 Yellow Fin.
I will post in the reports tomorrow.
Wednesday,Thursday should be good after the S.E blow.
Cheers,
Myles
I'm heading up to fish the bribie comp next week so hopefully the fish hang around and I can mess with my first hoo and black.Can't wait congrats on the pbs.
Cheers Brendan......
Myles,
Where you guys just running skirts or did you have some divers out as well. What worked best for you on the day.
Horse,
Main things we look for when popping, is current, bait, structure and if you can get all three it is a bonus. It is hard to get a fish to hit a surface popper with a lot of boat traffic the fish will tend to stay in mid water.

gday andrew,
i saw you trolling past i think just as that rain and wind
went screaming past and thought, shit these blokes are keen in the open boat......lol
some nice fish in the kit
cheers dale
we were also just dropping some jigs down but couldnt win a trick so gave it up.
Gday Andrew,
Short answer mate, gotta clean the bbq etc haha I will do a full report later tonight after everyone has left.
We ran both, but a red/white Halco Laser pro 190 Crazy Deep caught 4 of the Wahoo, the Mahi Mahi and a Yellow Fin, Same Laser pro in Blue Mackeral colour got a Wahoo within 2 minutes of being in the water and the other Yellow Fin.
Got 1 Wahoo on a Black Barts El Squid Jnr and had a couple of skirts ruined by the Hoos on missed strikes.
The Marlin strikes and hook ups were all on various skirts.
Cheers,
Myles
Top stuf guys, we were on our way to hutchies for a troll about 11am but we had an idler bearing seize on the motor which ruined our plans, we had a bottom bash early in the day and ended up with about 15 fish with some nice pearlies in there. Would have given it all up for a hoo or dolly.
cheers Lee
Dale,
A center console is the ultimate all round fishing boat, but getting from A to B and if it rains sometimes you might as well just jump in the drink you get just as wetHopefully get back out there on wednesday have an RDO and weather is looking a lot better (no rain).
Andrew
Nice result Andrew. It's a tough time of the year to fish so any PB is a bonus. Later this week is looking good....might see you out there.
Cheers
Dave
Is that a Galeforce boat? I have one but in 2 years haven't been out of the bay yet....(never seen to be on the water when the weather is right). How have you found it out that far?

Rugbymick,
Yah handles the offshore stuff really well, you get some funny looks from some of the big boats when you turn up at the 50s or further in it, but has handled everything I have ever taken it out in.
