great stuff keith, visited Yeppoon a few times, nice looking water.

Good to know there are some quality fish to be had off there as well, might have to talk to friends about going out next time.

Great way to start the new boat off, well done.
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!
