Just caught my first SEQ Longtail. Absolutely amazing :D :D :D... Previously caught from a cairns gameboat (definitely not as exciting!)

Fished Bribie with my brother wes (Fly cyberlegend ::) ::)).
Pretty slow early on, but when the wind whipped up and rain came down they came onto a sizzling bite. Lots of schools with working birds over head. I used slugs but wes had equal success with Fly. Overall 2 longtail 6-7kg + 1 mack landed lost 3, Wes 1 longtail (same size) + 1 mack + 3 lost (1 sharked 2 meters from the boat - thats what you get wes for fluffing around....)


Its good to see some other guys out there just to prove we arent crazy to fish in the pooring rain, 2m swell, 20kt winds.....
I think they did pretty well seemed to be hooked up every time we saw them!

Any way girls and guys - have a happy and safe easter and hopefully we'll see you out on the water.

Hi George,
Another couple of choona chasers I know were out there off Bribie today too. From memory they boated about 4 longtails + 6 macks on the long wand. Gotta be good fun!!
