28th headed up to great mercury got some scallops in home bay very easy pickings at 15m fished around Gt Merc managed 6 snapper including one at 22 lb what I ended up successfully releasing fished from 1pm till 5pm
30th headed up to red mercury leaving cooks at 5.30am what a prick that channel is at the moment got there by 6.30 and baits in the water managed a good looking mixed bin of 8 snapper,2 trevally, and a few blue mao mao which were in plague proportions, got taken to the cleaners on a straylined trevally fillet finished up there about 10am and back to base
