issue Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Nice dolly, pity about the marlin but I bet you dont mind really. Its still exciting getting emptied. What did you hear on the radio? I'm spewing I didn't launch today, looks glamour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The President Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Nice big bull, great way to start the new year. May I ask what time did you get the marlin bite. Fished that area during the afternoon tide change with two other boats also there. Didn't turn a reel. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexaway1234 Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 All action appeared in morning we found the blue at 930 before tide change but it seemed quiet for most in arvo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyT Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Nice-we got out in the arvo-tracked up to the 9 mile, 12 mile for not much- saw some bait on the surface at the 12 so stayed for the tide change but saw nothing. Trolled down to the peak and on our way back north from their hooked a nice black but couldnt stay connected- seemed a bit surreal hooking a marlin at 645 in the evening- so we stayed till dark.Nothing more after that- heaps more life in the 50 fathom area - will try agin on Thursday.
