FAD's still out, anyone need a deckie?

Well, after not catching any decent fish in exi, i'm still itching to catch a proper dollie before the FAD's get pulled for the year.

Anyone heading out looking for a deckie? Fuel, bait, ice, own gear, etc as per usual, and happy to provide a few drinks as well. Hopefully theres still a trip left before the season end.

We can confirm the following;

  • FADs are there
  • the forecast was wrong
  • 200hp yammys are great!
We also saw a fantastic bait school with oodles of big terns on it, it covered acres, but whatever was on it was too well fed to eat dolly lures.
