I have done very well this time of year if you get out to the clear blue water. 10kg+reds and huge schools of saddletails in 40ish meters last year between cyclones. inshore and arround the islands was soup.
this was around the 40m mark Noha, and reasonable looking ground too. I reckon it would've been better if there was a bit more movement.. I've never really fished well on neap tides.
Yeah but your out on the patches.. I can see the anchored ship. Everyone goes there. I was west of the islands, way west. Ground was good coral, full of big red fish and best of all, no bloody sharks.
That's the sort of picture you want to blow up to poster size and stick on your wall. Then you can look at it when the weather is crap.

was pretty quiet... saved the day with the speargun though. Think it is due to the rain/bad weather we had last week.
