Abrolhos or Montebello Islands ?

 Hi all

I have the opportunity to hire a big liveaboard boat for my exclusive use in July 2018 for 1 week

Option is to go to the Abrolhos or to the Montebello Islands

I have not fished at either location before

I like bottom bashing with baits/soft plastics and trolling for spaniards and YF tuna

Would appreciate any feedback on which may be a more preferable location

Regards

R

Spaniards and Tuna are going to be hard to find mid winter at the Abrolhos.

 I reckon they are on par. Similar but different.

Monties is a lot of travel time if you are leaving from perth.
