Current FAD confirmation

With all the great weather coming up and all the talk of the fads does anyone actually know 100% which ones are out there and which ones arent, especially with the price of fuel atm i know i dont want to be travelling out there for no reason, also the ones that are there are there fish on them?

Heading out

Mon, 2008-02-04 17:41

If the weather holds out i will be heading out wide on Sunday to have a look for some big fin and beakies. Will have a look around for them but will prob fish the 600-1000mtr mark. You looking at heading out soon Mako. Might be able to make a day of it.

A few of my clients have got fish from the FADS but very quiet still out there Matthew. The two missing FADS have been replaced but now the Fremantle Sailing Club FAD is missing apparently!

Hillarys i think, size wise about 4kg's but not enought to get me out there yet. Ironically the water temps up ie 23-24 degrees so yehhhrrrr...go figure!
