Snapper with Shikari
Submitted by Ectopic on Fri, 2015-01-23 12:37
A group of us went out this morning with Allan from Shikari charters (0412131958) to hunt some pink snapper.
After a some-what slow start they came on the bite big time, with plenty of snapper to share around.
Was a morning of great fishing & great company. We might have even got some tuna, if "Wiggy" hadn't spooked them by planting his ballista popper right in the middle of the school on the way back!
If you want to experience some crazy snapper softplastic action right on our doorstep this weekend give Allan a call.
Visit www.shikari.com.au
Even those afflicted by sea-sickness managed to catch fish! (well sort of).
Largest fish went 85cm
Softplastics did the damage (gulp/madeye paddle prawn/zman)

Very flexible
Allan will tailor the charter based on whether you want to do a full-day or morning snapper bash. Morning snapper runs are affordable, and you'll be back in time for lunch to keep the missus happy!
Yes he can take you out to jig for sambos but the weather has to be right. Plenty of sambos but sharks can be a problem at times.
He has on occassions taken people out wide for super-deep species, and FADs for mahi mahi.
There were plenty of snapper on the sounder this morning, so that's what I'd be looking to do this weekend. Give him a call, I think he has spots available.

getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.
