Huge school of salmon Cockburn Sound Tuesday 23 June

I went out for a quick fish yesterday afternoon and noticed what appeared to be a huge baitfish ball come under my boat. A couple of minutes later my sounder went from 18m to 6m and totally red in colour and I couldn't work it out until my two rods with mullies on went off simultaneously. SALMON again!!!
Unfortunately I didnt have my wits about me to get a picture of when it went red but I did when the bail was underneath..
The school was huge and I had to move to another location as I had no need to catch salmon this time around.. Been into them for weeks...
