Ditto. We buzzed all of the FADS and they were very quiet. Pulled one dolly and lost one at the Furuno FAD late in the arvo and that was it for the day. Even burleying up livies before we left was difficult.
Pulled one decent dhuie and one just under, shitloads of s/bakers. Plenty showing on the sounder but not really interested. The decky was getting a bit pissed as I was the one pulling up the fish haha.
We had a good day out got our bag by lunch time, plenty of new spots found with good results, then heading in towing a few lures, lost a good mackie at the boat.
Yea we hit the mid 30s behind gi fished 3 spots bagged on dhu, b/ ass kgs everywhere also got pinkys undersize and couple of sambo top day on the water
Launched at 5:30 and headed to FFB more towards carnac. After 30ish mins headed directly west to the 40s so I was probably out of sight from your position
We had a good day, caught skippy, flathead, blackass, and then went out behind rotto into 40s for 2 yellowtail kingfish and good sized pinkie. Good day out.
