well well well.... what a difference a day can make. after yesterday, i went out today with low expectations to say the least! i didnt get on the water til 6.30 and made the run down to currumundi. fished the bottom for half an hour or so and didnt get a touch. i noticed a few patches of birds work further south so i went to investigate. by the time i got down there the few birds had turned into hundreds. there was small schools of tiny baitfish all over the place, but no fish breaking the surface. BUT just under the surface thousands of spotties busting up the bait. the half hour that followed is the stuff dreams are made ofi got my mag limit of 5 within the first 20 mins, then dropped down to 3kg to have some fun.
the birds down there were the only birds i saw all morning and they were all in the one area. no other boats in the area so i had them all to myself. all good size fish as well. smallest was 78cm's, but most were over 85cm.
, I had the same thing at fraser 1 day i saw the birds but no surface action, so i dropped a slug to the bottom in about 10 - 15 mtrs of water and cranked it up then Bang! i was on. Its the best feeling when u realise the water underneath u is full of spotties, people seem to get sick of hearing about macs, but i tell ya they are the most fun to catch.
