Goldy Monday

[lethal]

Went through the seaway early sunday morning and picked up a few livies up from the scottish prince at the turn of the tide, with a little surface action there but didnt bother with a slug as i was after bait. Went up to the South Straddie Arti, water temp 22.5, did a few drifts for nothing. Went out to the 24's and found a bait school just off the reef with some of the biggest arches i've seen on the sounder sitting about 10 metres from the bottom, a couple drifts there were too fast around 5-8km per hour. So we went to look for a FAD which i got the coords from here but couldnt find it. Sat on the edge of the green zone for 5 min watching the birds work and a school of fish smashing bait on the surface in the green zone. Went back to the arti and sat up current from it, dropped the pick and burleyed hard. Got 2 strikes from under a balloon but no hook ups. Called it quits about 11am and enjoyed a couple cold ones.

Lethal,

It was slow going off Fraser on the week end as well, must have been that there was not much tidal flow. ??

Cheers,

Could have been the Northerly winds maybe?
