Overdraft Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Tuna are very hard to find off Sydney at the moment. Especially with That current ripping down hill. What a great way to finish the day though! That would be a good day in summer let a lone winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjts Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) Reading that (late winter Blue Syd)has got me all eager again to give a Aug Marlln trip a go at Coffs or even Port Stephens. Cheers for the report Edited August 1, 2016 by rjts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEAFEARER Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) The Marlin are still around alright, searabbit and myself were fishing just the back of Texas for Kings two weeks ago and nearly got spooled by we think must've been a blue on my Stella , line parted ways and the Marlin could be seen jumping in the distance, great excitement for a brief minute Edited August 5, 2016 by Spooled Again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
