Headed across the bay from Scarbie Monday morning and first and only fish for the day in the esky by 6 am. Didn't see any debris in the bay and water temp at the Cape was 23 degrees. Lots of whales still. Had a bite off from a wahoo and saw a couple of sails also.

Looks like a mirror image of your avatar. Nice fish.
Nice Snapp Jeremy looks a good size.
Very nice fish Jeremy,
Were you trolling as well for the pelagics or live-baiting.

Very nice snap Jeremy, how big did she go ? Keen on more details on the Hoo too ?
Wow, excellent catch and tastes even better. Tell us all about how you caught it ... I won't tell anyone else

Great snap, where bouts did you see the hoo and sailfish. Were they also in 23degrees? where you trolling for hoo or casting?
Was out there monday as well.
Cracker of a day.
Haven't seen many of those beauties this year!
Got to be happy with that...

Snapper went 83 cm 6.64 kg and taken on a soft plastic as per the photo. Just the one for me and mate got a slightly smaller model. Boat is V146C haines which is a 4.4 m half cab.
We trolled a spread of 4 lures including minnows, bibless and pushers wide of Hutchies. The wahoo took a Halco 160DD and we didn't have any other hits on the lures. No mack tuna. We nearly ran over one sail on the troll and saw another 3 free jumpers.
Hopefully the sails will still be around next week and I will take some live baits.
what depth did was the 23 degree water temperature in? and was that where you saw the sails?
nice snap Jeremy. You leaving the sunny coast alone now?
planning the next onslaught 6.5m Profish

23 degrees +/- a bit all the way from Cape to beyond hutchies. Sails were around the hutchies area.
