    Good Stuff.
    Mate you'd be counting the days,doin mental checklists.It's just so good out there.
    One arvo I caught about 13 fish in half an hour bottom bashing off the back of the marlin board.
    Samaurez is the next step up ,then Fredericks.They just get bigger and toothier out there.
    Hope you get heaps of pics to stick on Tbx.The gallery is a good way to store your stuff .e.g if your computer crashes and you haven't backed up,you can retrieve them from the Gal.anytime.
    Hope you guys have a great time.

    Hi Muddyelliot how are you mate ? The Swains will be fishing very well at the moment because of all the rain we have had...All fresh water is in close and all the salt is out wide...We went to a closer reef then Swains and we cleaned up big time...Check out the thread ''A night on the reef '' As soon as our bait hit the bottom we were on everytime and we were bagging out on many different fish

    Cheers Paul...

    Hi Paul
    Great report and some nice fish in the post"Night out on The Reef".Must have missed it but just read through it.I can relate to the sore arms when we fished Swains.
    My whole body ached and my head was dizzy for a week after.
    Keep those posts comin' buddy!
