Our full day fishing charters over the past couple of weeks have been quite exciting and there have been some very impressive fish boated aboard CATCH 22. There have been really big snapper 80cm plus boated on regular occasions on our full day fishing charters.
North east of double island point has been fishing extremely well, the little rocks and bommies in the middle of know where have been producing some outstanding fish red emperor, snapper,peral perch,scarlett perch,hussar,moises perch,amber jack the list goes on.
With the weather conditions almost perfect on all our full day charters bar a few leaving early has been the key only a couple of late starts due to shallow water on the bar but even them trips produced well with some nice fish caught aboard catch 22.
Double Island Point has had mostly a slight current running north / south the biggest snapper over the 80cm mark were eating large fresh pilchards on the floaters. All other species have been quite easy to catch on a Patagonian rigs taking half pilchards and fresh strips of hussar or mullet in between all the action we have dropped some quite big fish and spooled a couple of reels due to sharks moving in on the action.
Barwon Banks has fished good for snapper but a couple of trips were hard going due to different wind, swell and current directions so we chose double island point to avoid these conditions and it paid of big time !!
Heaps of whales of the steam out and back got to keep a good look out while travelling at high speed on the fishing charters as these animals just pop us out of know where , there are 40,000 migrating up the east coast this time of the year so take caution.
