PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Mackerals in Moreton bay still?????
I was there the w/end before last - second last beacon if en-route to Morton. Certainly Mackeral there - we had four lines out, two strip baits and two of us tossing a metal lures at the beacons (anchored up about 20m upcurrent)...
Never actually *caught* a maceral, but plenty of slams on the retrieve of the lures resulting in tight then depressingly limp lines... amazingly never lost any tackle, but the mono line was stripped / frayed to the point where I could break a 40lb leader with two fingers - it had tiny mono "hairs" all over it - amazing!. Decided to trial a wire trace and not a hit...
Uncomfotable slop started with winds picking up by 11am and decided to pull in the strip baits - BANG - a lovely little cobia .... wow they can look like Noahs coming up in the water...
