Great week on the snapper and southern bluefin tuna to 130lb

At last good weather and Broadbill and Billfisher have made hay while the sun shines working the past five days straight. We mixed up some really brilliant snapper fishing with a few trips to the wide grounds for yellowfin and southern blues. We have had great success and really have enjoyed some pristine almost Ozzie Spring weather, days of light west winds in the morning easing to almost breathless days later, supurb conditions, such a change from the gale winds we have had to put up with for a monmth or more. Our australian snapper are wonderfull to catch. We fish in 60 to 70 metres of water and fish what we call "floaters for them" For details see my web site www.gamefishingcharters.com.au go into "Fishing Stories and Hints" There are some great photos of recent catches of big bluefin and yellowfin as well.

The floater method is just what it suggests floating lightly weighted baits back in the chum slick. The bluefin have varied from 60lb to 230 lb "Great fishing Down Under"
