    Moreton Bay 15/16

    Just done a 36 hours marathon in the bay with Russell and cameron (my son).
    Started off on the southern side of Mud early friday, then to the mile and across to crab looking for spotties, but all the birds and spotties had bolted.
    So we did a few sorties around moreton banks/the foul grounds and rous, staying sat nite off the moreton banks.
    Found out Sat night that the ring netters had cleaned up the middle of the bay during the week, the reason why no spotties about.
    Tried again sunday morning on the way back to Mud and brissy river (trolling), but couldnt find anything that was interested.
    Did a stop over at the northern pinnicale at mud, and had some success.
    The bay was at its best all weekend.
    And i would say where in for a good squire season, with the good roll up in numbers that are out there at present.
    between the 3 of us 7 squire (3kg the best) 2 parrot and 2 mother in laws and 1 yellow 7 grinners and 2 forkies.
    Bait mainly fresh bottle squid and live h/heads and pike.
    Missus only got the computer back online sat arvo and have reloaded digital programme yet and a few others, so post some pics later.
    regards,

    I too went out in the bay first light saturday morning, however we found the birds circling and the waters chopping up in schools of around 30m across.
    We through every type of metal slug I had in the trusty box at them but no luck at all..Must have spent 3 hours chasing them and not one hit..I am thinking that I might be needing some really small " maybe 10g raiders?"
    We even trolled past them at various depths and no luck hit our way at all.

    A man can never get as frustrated as when he sees fish everywhere yet can not land a single one.

    These were schooling west of naval reserve banks from 530 till about 930

    cheers adam
