Heading out of Buffalo watching the Sunrise Happy fishos Told ya I saw one in the Mangrove roots dad! See!

Little Barra from West Arm yesterday

Any idea what the water temp was Flickin?

Had fun down to the Daly today, My deckie caught 117 The fish was in great condition,

Took my step son out to SWA on Sunday and the blue salmon were busting up. Got the odd small one but most were between 50 - 60cm to the fork and 60 - 70cm to the tip of the tail. Great fun on lures and they were busting up for over 3 hours, even destroyed my old faithful classic lure.

Took a mate to SWA on Tuesday and it was very quiet, just a couple more blue salmon. Tides a bit too neap with only 0.6m of movement.

Fished yesterday and the best was an 87cm barra on a classic, fish was in excellent condition and released well, water temp was 27.1

caught a decent queenie off the beach a few weekends ago, put up a good fight.

... then went back a few days later, still on the spring tides ... lost a good size GT after a 5 min. fight, but then landed another decent skinny not too long after, which eased the pain somewhat ...

thready from hervey bay last month

Went to Leaders last neaps for SFA. Place was dead

Fished Dundee yesterday on a mates boat, good mixed bag of snapper, trout, cod, trickies, spanish and spotted mackeral, mack tuna, trevally and a small cobia, mostly on vibes and jigs, was plenty of big turtles about and a whale that cruised past.

I reckon it's because of the full moon Lats. Fishing during the daylight anyway.
