rotto today
Submitted by roddo on Mon, 2012-12-31 19:12
Headed out to rotto today for our first time and it was a great day couldn't ask for better weather. Headed straight out to the 100mt mark and chased some bait schools around with no success so headed in a little shallower got a monster sambo on bait along with a coral trout a.pink snapper and a dhu fish along with another 7undersize dhuys a dozen black arse few sgt bakers and couple scorpion fish. This was all in the one spot we then tried a few more spots with nothing serious showing up so called it a day.
Gotta say the coral trout made my day as it was my first and I also didn't realise they came down this far.
Cheers

I'd be more
surprised about a Coral Trout than any Emperor.
Red Throats have been caught as far south as Prevelly (Margaret River)
