Coral bay help/ advice
Submitted by baron 88 on Tue, 2014-07-29 17:18
Hi everyone
we are currently up in coral bay with the boat and after multiple failed attempts things are getting desperate. I'm not to sure what were doing wrong I've spent hours trawling up and down along the back of the reef for nill and many more hours sounding around in the 30 to 50m range without finding and decent ground and only catching a couple of red throat. Tomorrow were planning to head out to the 100 to 150m range to hopefully change our luck. Just hoping that someone could give some good advice on where we should head or possibly even be willing to share a spot, not a secret honey hole just a starting point that we could head to so we at least know we have some decent ground to start on.
Thanks
Reece

I remember many years ago I
I remember many years ago I had trouble when I first fished there in a small tinny inside the reef. Was hooking fish but couldnt get them away from structure, as I was fishing on ledges etc. Someone suggested I look for flat broken bottom, rubbly stuff etc, thats when the fish came a lot easier. You dont need to go out miles to get fish, Just a suggestion anyway.

Thanks for the help guys, I
Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it!! I know it takes a lot of time effort and burnt up fuel to find spots and good fish so it means a lot that people are willing to share advice. Thanks again and hopefully we can get onto some fish before we leave.
