I was up there for the long weekend. We tried to troll up a mackeral but couldn't find any. We tried inside the islands, outside the islands and then out in 50 meters.

The locals were saying they've caught a few mackeral off the jetty so maybe in close would be the best bet, but I wouldn't know because we didn't find them.

We did find lots of Tuna out in the 50 meters. They were jumping out of the water all over the place while we were trying to bottom bash. We caught about 6 of them. They were mostly stripeys but also a few yellowfin.
