Anyone up for a ramp to ramp 6-7am to 2pm fishing trip out from Cairns on Tuesday, it's long range ATM but seabreeze say it 'might' be possible.

If interested PM and I will fill in the gaps.

Daz not real far just somewhere on the inside of the reef, I need to get back a little early so less travel more time fishing - if the wind plays our game, just getting out will be a treat.

Well I hope we all make it out, Daz J/L should be great, too far for me in the time I have though, interested to hear how you get on.

Hey FNQ, Scott_nthqld and I got out yesterday, shitty tides, wind and swell were nowhere near what was predicted but there was at least one good moment in the day. Scotts report will tell you the full story.

Good fight and had some fun (even with little to no run)

I was hoping it was a lazy Spaniard, but alas not. Still a good fight and the bugger pulled hard, best Trev fight I have had yet.

Good Luck on Tuesday, wish I could be there, but I unfortunately have to work and as usual when the weather turns good, you know where I am forced to be "workin". You'd thing as a shifty that the odds would be on my side 4 days on 4 days off, but seems that the man up stairs has my schedule and the weather patterns down pat!!!!

Rod we got out yesterday, think Daz is floating around as I speak.

Had a good day the wind was kind, got some largemouth and multiple trevally, my back and arms still know about it, was hoping for an incidental spanish but no luck.

Scott,
Nice Work. We headed out today. We being myself and my old man, up from melbourne on holidays.
It was hard work getting across the paddock but once out there it was a good day.
The old man dropped his first bait down and boats a Red Emporer a tad small at about 30 cm. Second bait down he gets busted off by Moby Dick. so being the good son i give him my rod and 20 seconds later hes onto something else. I forgot about him and his fight with this fish. Then i get asked "what do you call these?" I looked over and hes got a 55 cm trout on its side beside the boat. He also boated a few Spangled emporer, grassy sweetlip and the ussual small reef suspects.
He did well for a bloke going on 70 with 2 dicky knees (except for the whinging at every wave we hit on the way out and the way back.
The BAD news is there was no spaniards. NOT 1. we got a mack tuna but that fought like fat albert.
I cant wait to get out there again
Cheers

Sounds like you and Ronnie had a good trip Scott. Ronnie gave me a ring that arvo and gave me a few of the details, says he'll go up a report when he gets to a computer with the net.

Scott, I think Ron is psychic, he mentioned more than once if we had a chance of boating a nanny and I played it down as a bit of a long shot although anything can be at this spot, never know for sure till the end of the day, then just as I was paying no attention thinking he had just another bludger, up come this lovely red colour!

Good trip chock full of exercise to end a near 2 month drought.
