had the call to help run a mates marintimo 48 upto bundy from the gold coast and get to play with the garmin electronics on board (my new job is garmin qld sales rep) awesome set up inc 2 x 15 inch garmins and 12 inch on back deck radar ect ect;D and unbeleviable boat , more about electronics in electronics section when i get pics ect together.

the call was made best to travel during day and not drop a line untill we were on the red grounds off d.i couldnt resist a quick drift or 2 on way up for a few parrott not much but fish seemed to bite on the 2 spots we stopped at but middle of the day and were keen to be in the right area for arvo session , arrived at 3-4ish and fished for only 3 hrs when wind and current picked up and couldnt even get a 24 once lead to bottom but didnt matter because the few hrs we had the fish chewed well.

KC you caught more quality fish in a few hours than I would be happy with in a few days - way to go!!

I wonder if the boat is called "Pandemonium" ?

Thanks for the post - some nice fish there.

Oh and the sounder looks okay too ;)

hey trev its a nice way to travell

bring on rainbow comp full week of red fishing

pics of sounder are at planning speed to show structures full outlay, when slowed down fished showed up all over screen more pics in electronics section soon. i know it says 3.8 knts in pic thats when i slowed down to take pic had to skipper photographer and fish all at once (hard job i know) people that know sounders will know at speed you get better look of structure.
