Could have been a mulie boat.

Prawners don't start up here for a week or two and couldn't see them doing trials down there.

Out from Mindarie

Mon, 2011-02-28 09:20

I was about 8 nm west of Mindarie on Saturday. The Trawler came up from the south, east of our poistions, then headed west and started tracking west then east and then west again. Was around us until we left at 12 noon and was still heading west. This area I fishing nomally produces Ok but nothing this day. Now I know why.
