Hards Again

[indy]

Just a quick one so so tired

Hit the hards with three of us for another overnighter with parrot everywhere but where did the snapps go, looked high and low but couldn't find them. Couple of nice pearlies and parrot and some mowy's for the neighbours plus a cracker of a morning run home.

No near misses this time with trawlers so happy days
goodnight.....

Not real sure there was alot of bonito and some other small fish boiling up at one stage, probably would be worth a shot nice looking ground up that way.

My mate got the big one would had to of been every bit of 3 kilo if not 3.5 was a nice fat fish.

Schuey

We left at 7am and what a great run home she was we sat on 45klm/h wishing i had a bigger motor

Goona

I talk to ainslee and see if she wants to go for a run over there on saturday will let you no. Good luck with the rest of the week

Nice pearlies and parrot Pete.

Most snapper would most probably be out in deeper water < 90 metres close to the shelf at this time of the year at the Hards as the water temp is too high at depths of less than 60 metres. They usually skoot out deeper after Christmas in that area.

Have a look at that water, you could have gone to Fiji.

Great catch, perfect weather, I will get up there one day for sure.

How long did it take to get out there from Mooloolaba?
