I remember this catch we had off Westend and had a heavy mackerel strike 5 minutes beforehand on the 12th
of April 2005. You are on a hot streak Sam, nice fish for the metro buddy!! Maybe they move in close later in the season.

never heard of dollies being caught at the west end.
i would have been very happy with that
mainly because never caught a dollie :p
awsome catch any way
good one sam, ollie a few guys in our club have said they have seen them out in the 90's west of rocko, a long way from the fads, so sometimes just need the right water, just like alfred getting them that day on the weed patch he found

Now that's an interesting capture for that location. Obviously plenty of warm water still around.
Did you pick up any salmon in the same area Sam?
