Another busy week has produced some more quality fish. Started this week with a trip to the Vernon Islands last Sunday and while the fishing wasnt outstanding we did bag some quality fish. Several 40cm plus mangrove jacks and a 80cm QLD groper were among them
Barra have been pretty consistent all week but the good news for the dry is the number of quality  Threadfin Salmon about. All the fish have been in the 80cm range and they are about in numbers I havnt seen for several years. Friday we landed four salmon all over 80cm and lost many more.
Crabs have also turned up in big numbers b

With the crocodiles starting to show themselves sunning on the banks its a sure sign that the water temp is staring to fall and with the arrival of some quality Threadfin Salmon the dry season is upon us. Despite the drop in temp the barra are still biting with some quality fish being taken and lost this week. The outstanding fish of the week goes to Nat Harrison who landed a stunning 105 cm barra on a low tide tour in Hope Inlet this morning.
The mud crabs have also taken a turn for the better this week with some good quality bucks showing up in the creeks.

Fishing this week has been pretty good. Plenty of barra about and on the bite and the size of the fish has improved. Plenty of fish in the high seventies and a few bigger ones. Fish of the week goes to Wayne Brennan-jesson. Wayne fished with me today on the neap tide and landed a great 101cm fish on a small mullet fished on the bottom. he lost a similar fish a short time later.
Crabs have been a little slow this year but a good feed can still be had
