Andy, there's a few around at the moment up there. Read back into the old posts both here and on pakula.com for alot of great advice. If you're serious, you should maybe try joining a club or getting a spot out on another boat first, otherwise it can be a slow learning curve. I'm a member of the Sunshine Coast Game Fishing Club, and everyone there is very helpful and welcoming to new comers.

Good luck, C.J. Maycock

good luck

Andy Orr bought Peter Pescell's Red Express. That boat caught the most Billfish in Australia one year only a few ago. Plenty of Billies and other gamefish to be caught from Old Woman to the Blinker to Murphys to the close in Caloundra reefs.
