Roughly at 12 08.100S 130 23.000E from memory. An online AIS tracker with a map will locate it for you, she's west of the statrt of the north and south gutters

How'd you go? I ended up at the Fentons and could see the Stena on the horizon. Couldn't stop think of the possibilities if we had gone there

Headed out there on the weekend just gone. We pulled up the 3 biggest power tail that I have seen, each was around the 1m mark but they were clean, lean and very strong. I didn't realise they would be that far out to sea. If they were that size in a billabong they would have been fat, green and slimy.

Re: Stena Clyde gas rig off Darwin
Has anyone been out to the rig lately? I need to blow the cobwebs out of my rig and was thinking of doing a run out there on Sunday morning.
Poor boat has not had a spray of salt in months.
Cheers,

Went out last week in the night and it was fairly lumpy but managed to troll up some Spaniards 8-12kg. Rapala deep divers (as deep as possible) red and white did the damage as it outfished anything else 4-1. Fish the southern side under the lights and hang on.stayed away from the huge schools of trevally on the sounder too.
Good luck
