Today at Apollo Bay, Tristan, Michael & Reece in their boat “Hoodlum” landed a 134kg fish. They hooked up in the 70meter mark off Point Franklin, and had him on for approx 1.5hrs. (Thanks to “Surf and fish Apollo Bay” for the report.)
Ashley and Neville Dance and Matt Burgess went for a late afternoon fish off Warrnambool today when the wind settled a bit, and got straight into the tuna, getting one on a Halco diver and two on metal slugs. They are only a couple of kilometres out.
Rhooky took his son Shannon (pictured), Darcy and Travis Graham out for a quick afternoon trip off Warrnambool as well, keeping 4 and letting 7 go.
Matty Cook yesterday headed out wide off Warrnambool, catching tuna and dolphinfish. The economical Suzuki DF140ATL motor used an economical 72.5 litres on a trip of 159 kilometres.
Matt Chadderton, Andrew Smith and Simon Lucas had no trouble finding tuna in 300-400m off Portland on Friday, bagging out by 10:30 and releasing another 5, plus losing a few, and a couple of albies. No shortage of fish, with 4 and 5-way hookups.
Jamie McLaren and Simon Nolan had a good day off Port Fairy, trolling through the schools of tuna with a hookup that didn’t stick, and then onto a mark that produced this nice 6kg snapper.
Paul, Mohammed and Janaka bagged out on tuna yesterday in 40m of water off Warrnambool.
