Fads are starting to cook..,...

Headed offshore for the morning yesterday....Hit up a fad which resulted in 11 fish being boated another two lost in battle. Biggest went 6-7 kg, there were still some small fish 2-3 kg fish thrown in but generall size was 4-5 kg... our last fish would of been up there with the best of the day, but was thrown back as we already had kept two.

Got them all on the bream gear was so much fun, with one tussle last longer then 20 mintues , as i was playing him on 12 pound

 

The two fads we visted  were holding good amounts of dollies, it whether you could interested them or not. We caught ours on skirts/baits/placcies....we had to keep changing everything up as theyh consistently were getting spooked

 

was wierd heading out, at roughly the 100m mark we just went through this wierd fog....couldnt see anything within 10 m, slowed right down, then all of a sudden back to clear skys!

 

headed offshore to the 600m mark after about 830 am...and trolled for a lonesome kingfish which i found wierd....maybe a rainbow runner?
