Snapper in the Cockburn Sound

Has anyone been catching any Pinky's in the sound of late?

Thinking of heading down there next week!

If so, what sort of depth?

Yep alot of boats out and didn't see any action.... Hilite of the day was seeing someone hook a small ray .

Was good to see Fisheries out in force today tho !!

A smaller craft was just coming in behind us back at the ramp, while a larger launch was just preparing to head out for the night shift...

Went out in the kayak not far from the kwinana industrial strip with 3 other kayakers, one chap got to rays,2nd snapped his rod in half and nearly knocked him out Surprised 

I never got a nibble , one good thing it was flat calm and a great night to be on the water, after arriving at rthe launch at 4 pm,,i was having 2nd thought until the weather improved shortly after.
