Sonya & Tony's Week







Well, it was game on again for me last week, with Sonya and Tony fishing for 6 days, spending 2 days down the coast and 4 in the rivers. The fishing was quite special some days - up to 60 or so fish in the creek for the day, with another day producing over 50 barras, both on lures and live bait. Te pelagics were a little tough at times, however one afternoon we found a number of mackerel and some tuna - both longtail and macks which were eager to eat metal slugs cast into the feeding masses.




Sonya managed a great threadfin salmon on a lure one afternoon, while in the middle of another day, in a quiet(?) backwater, lunch
had to be delayed as mullet after mullet was eaten by masses of hungry barras






This nice golden trevally fought hard and after release we watched as a dolphin that was hanging around caught and ate it.
