Submitted by in 2 deep on Thu, 2015-01-22 06:13
Hi all,
I'll be taking the boat down to Augusta next week and was thinking of launching from the new marina. Does anyone know if there has been much action recently down around that way ?
If so, would I need to go out far ?
Cheers

A bloke at work has been going out every break from there, 20-40 metres, getting some nice fish-dhu, queen snapper, red snapper, sambos. Seeing some good success on metal jigs, and he is completely new to it--scored a 10kg Dhu on a jig last weekend.

Dhu and pinkies
There are plenty of Dhu's and Pinkies caught around the islands.
At last try the best jigs have been Berkley Slomo 100gm Saphire Shine or the Tako Drift assist 90gm
Soft plastics for the Pinkies are the Zman Grub9" Violet Sparkle and the Pearl.
hope that helps out a bit.

Also don't be surprised if
Also don't be surprised if you get smoked fishing around those islands.
There are some thumping Sambo's and yellow tail kings too.
