favorite lures they all become MIAs

Just had 10 days with Tim and Muldy at the Biddy,average trip with big macks,shark macks heaps of trevs and just a few trout,job fish and a few s/emporer,not as good as I remember,pulled the boat out one day and there was still 30+ boats at the ramp. Generous breezes some days made for tough fishing but we did get out every day. One lure was outstanding a pale blue xwrap magnum which caught 6 macks hooked 2 sailfish and then was lost to big mack,bugger,still theres plenty more in the shops. Huge amount of whales and mantas, it was like being on a whale watch trip every day

Pretty unusual to get a saily on an Xrap

They tend to avoid them and especially if your running metal leaders for the razor gang.

Well done.

We were also in Exmouth last week Uncle and found that there were heaps of sharks around ................. made it bloody hard at times to get a fish in the boat.

 

The Mackies certainly run a bit harder with a big noah on their tail :)
