 Looking at the water temps at the moment I'm guessing they would be around again. There are still shark Mack's about for those in the know, they have been around through winter.

Water temp around 17.7 last

Thu, 2012-10-18 22:23

Water temp around 17.7 last week vs 21-24 degrees when we were regularly getting macs earlier this year. I think I will save myself the boredom and give the trolling a miss until 21 degrees is reached. However, the cool water has brought a few SBT's around do might give a few Jelly babes a drag.
