Wifey just got back yesterday and said the yellowfin were going off ! Try Kyle , Bluewater Adventures , he has a website ,he was keen to take me out to cast around the fads etc .

Thanks guys, sounds great. Will defo have a go on a charter or 2 but really want to do a bit of landbased too. We're staying at a friend's place at Muri, so that sounds just the thing! Is that the track that goes by the fishing club?

I have had a lot fun fishing the passages with poppers. Just used a 5-10kg softbait rod with a reel loaded with 8kg braid and cast out small poppers. Caught bluefin trevally and longtom plus assorted others I couldn't identify. You have to cast into the deep water of the channels. To be honest it was some of the most fun fishing I have had for years. Tried softbaits but found when they sunk just got snagged every 2nd cast. You don't have that problem with floating poppers. I am fairly sure GT's come into the lagoons at night because I hooked on 3 occassions absolute freight trains which blitzed me at high speed - one of the fish was on a 15kg outfit and I got smoked in a major way. All I could see in the moonlight were these huge splashes as these big fish herded up some bait fish against the shore. Good luck!

Thanks for all the help guys, much appreciated aye.

First couple - big thanks to Alan Syme :) Nice one mate!
