Off the shark nets. There is also a bit of rubble off Alex. Live Tailor and Mack Tuna are also a top bait and they are sometimes in good numbers off the mouth of the Maroochy. Next spot out I have is Murphys.

Thanks for that i normally go to murphy's as well but the boat i'll be in is a bit small.

Ps. i have never noticed the shark nets before are they out in front of the mooloolaba surf club some where?

In the bay at Mooloolaba and around the corner at Kawana.
