FISHING: Good
Salmon fishing was EXCELLENT on the weekend. From the marina side of Frazer Island west to the Trap Shack, big springs were caught in large numbers. At prime bite times, just about every boat had fish on! Loads of fish in the 20’s and 30’s were taken with the largest ones going just over 39 lbs. Anglers trolling large anchovies in Glo Green or Chartreuse teaser heads behind Green or Gold flashers were catching lots of salmon. Spoons were also doing well and a 39 lb spring was caught on a Green Coyote spoon right in the bay. The new Rhys Davis Purple Haze Anchovy Special has been very effective and is the hot new color. If you want to troll artificial baits, try #4 Coyotes, #4 Titans or #5 Gibbs Gators in Silver/Green and for plastics the Purple Haze or Moby Dick are good choices.
