Just on the other side of mud island today the Mackrel were at play. We got a few by drifting through the schools with pillies and herring. We chased lots of schools with slugs but they ran soon as we came close.. Typical. I did manage to snare one on a slug but it was mostly by accident. Threw out my slug to lay the line better on the reel and bam got hit. Nice spottie!

Cheers
