Saturday, Out Wide


Saturday is looking very good.

What is everyone up to?

I'm heading out wide, picking up mates at rotto then going for a straight hook freedive at a FAD, then trolling to dhuey spot maybe via a quick jig at the containers.

Any tips or techniques for the troll, I was going to drag a homemade flasher and run a 6m red head diver, a bellyflap rigged skirt, and some smaller skirts on the lighter gear.

Try west end for the spear, been to the FADs twice this week and seen nothing on them yet.

I didn't really see a lot of birds out super deep, they were feeding heaviest between 40 and 60m.

I was out on Tuesday with an unnamed experienced freediver but he didn't see anything I couldn't see from the surface, or on the sounder.

Dollies are nosey, you will see them if they're around, even if you can get them to bite. Nothing on the sounder either.

Let us know how you go though!
