snelly Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 I have a mate who comes up once a month so we usually try and squeeze in a fishing trip. ON the water at 5-00am stopped fishing at 7-30am made it to work by 10-00am. Managed a couple of Queenfish, plus a Cobia and a nice Trevally (Jack ) Cheers Snelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsalt Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Great way to start the day! I take it the Queen fish is the one with the spots down the side? They look like the types that don't come to the boat with out some work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snelly Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Hi Rob, Yep that's them. At that size like 3' they are top fun, jump out of the water and carry on. These were fished out of 90' of water but still jump when you get them up to the top. Dave sight fishes quite a few down at Hinchinbrook - even more fun.

Waz-in-Oz Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Nice Fishing John, Thanks for the advice on the phone the other day and I p***ed it on to the mechanics straight away and it appears we have tracked down the issue. Lucky as another couple of trips and they said my motor would have blown up totally but appears we have saved it and now have the fuel issue finally fixed. Should have it back in the water next weekend ready to start preparing and pre-fishing for the Hinchinbrook tournament. You may have a bit of competition for the Fly Title this year as my fishing partner is bringing the wand which he is not to bad on. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snelly Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hey Waz, Great to hear you have the problem fixed. Re the Fly title I have employed the "big guns". Kim my mate from the sunshine coast is fishing with me this year. He has won the fly section at least 4 times when he has fished with me in previous years.
