went out to the fads today from mandurah and what a awsome day for chasin billies.Caught a 8kg dolly and had a hookup from something pointy but failed to stay connected. Looking at the battle scared black bart it could be only one thing.Plus a few tuna made a very nice day for fishin. How did you other guys go.Any billies raised???????????????????????????????????

Southern Fads
We hit the All marine fad about 6;45, plenty of rat dollies free jumping, but after 3 or 4 runs past the fads we had only 1 hookup that didnt stay connected.
Set up a drift cubing pieces of mulie and floating back unwighted pieces with a hook buried. No joy but, a few more boats turned up but didn't see a lot of action. Did bring a lange bronzie( we think it was a bronzie) to the boat that took a floater, would have been around the 60kg mark. Just hung deep and sulked for a while until I got him near the boat then it fired up, cut him off boatside.
Trolled up to Freo YC Fad,plenty of boats there.
Run a spread of 5 lures back towards the west end, So many small stripies, Quadruple hookup at one stage, 1 of these on a pusher double hook rigged that was nearly as big as the stripie........
