the barges/samson fish
Submitted by collie on Fri, 2009-07-31 16:49
hey guys thinking of heading out to the barges 2moro to try and catch some sambos, never been out there before.
does anyone know the coordinates? i realise asking for coordinates is frowned upon but this is strictly catch and release obviously and i dont think this location is a real secret.
if any1 can help us out that wld be great.
cheers

if memeory serves me correctly
they are about 10 - 15nm south west of Rotto.
I know thats not a coordinate, but should give you an idea and get you in the area at least. And I would say its probably a bit early in the season - the summer months tend to be more productive.

Jig up some nice amberjack on some light gear (and light jigs) and you might change your opinion there John
Huggy, I think you're thinking of the derwent. A good sambo jigging spot (but 200m deep :S).

West
Hlokk, the Derwent is WEST of Rotto (approx 8nm)
Barges are west/ sou-west of Rotto about 4-6 nm.
10 to 15 nm sou-west of Rotto is the sou-west bank ???
JMHO.
