That couldn't have been the bay. There are no snapper left in the bay apparently. Or anywhere for that matter.

There's been some good fish caught out at Harry's recently. I was out there last weekend (for a doughnut, sadly) but a boat that was drifting the same structure as I was pulling in some decent fish. A couple of weeks before that, I landed my first legal jew out there and an hour later got bitten clean of by a member of the razor gang that hit so hard and fast that it made the jew feel like a whiting!

Berley? so you were drifting the baits down?

Well done jlbird.

Mate, even on a busy day, sound around away from the crowds. I hit Harry's on Good Friday, along with about 3600 other boats. It took a bit of time to find some fish/structure away from the crowds, but once we did we cleaned up on the sweetlip, with a few legal squire along the way.
