Went for a quick troll before work this morning for an hour. ;D Was towing lures as I had to make it a quick fish. Caught this little fella first up, then hooked up again and dropped a bigger Spaniard near back of ski after a 10 minute fight. Then had 1 more hit on troll home but by time I grabbed rod the fish had gone but left some nice teeth marks in my new lure. Nice morning on the water! 8-)

Well done Ben,
so 3 hits (maybe all Spainish?) within an hour.
Thats a pretty productive session, sounds like they're now starting to turn up.
How cheap is the session as well!, jetski fuel and no bait....

Thanks Mark. Its quick and easy on the ski to get out for a quick session before work compared to putting the boat in water then cleaning her down etc. I reckon the other 2 fish were Spaniards for sure.
Cheers,
Benny.

Nice! i've allways wanted to fish off my ski. Might give it a go very soon.
How were you trolling? Have you made up holders for the ski?

Mounted 2 rod holders on the grab section on back both on angles pointing out each side so i can troll 2 lures. One deep diver and the other bibless. I mount my esky on duckboard on back to put fish in and take donger and gaff along. Its good fun have caught some good fish off it over the years. 8-)

G'day, where about's were you trolling today. I was out off of Mooloolaba and saw plenty of tuna but no macs. Trolled for about an hour using RMG's to about 5mtrs but no luck.
Cheers Bicko
How far off shore did you go?
And yes, were you trolling Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast?
