care large logs in morton bay

Hi all just a quick note about moreton bay ,unable to sleep last night i decided to hit the water at 1.30am and fished woody point till 4 then zipped over to mud for the sunrise.
on the way back i must of seen 30-50 large pieces of trees and logs still drifting about in the middle of the bay between the shipping channel and woody point that is what i seen going in a straight line so who can imagine what is still floating around the bay and and a couple of these logs i would not of been able to get my arms around they were that big glad i did not get 1 in the dark makes me wonder how many near misses i had going accross, i noticed a lot of logs floating around woody point a few weeks back as well

scary stuff ......... so how was the fishing ?

Chris

Yeah was like that last weekend too shane heaps of them some big and some tid bit. I say it will be like that for a while till the woods starts to rot and break up but the water was looking pretty good for the tings and we where 3 short of our bag limit . Could have stayed to get them but hey more for next trip. oh and there where a fair few small black tip reef sharks hunting i hooked 7 and landed 2

Hey chris the fishing was not worth mentioning mate lol 1 keeper grassy a few under snapper and a few rays and sharks lol,
Hey nip i have noticed at the ramps in recent weeks there is still a large number of debri washed up there i thik the council needs to do another clean up.
I decided not to go for tings due to the good forcast wanted to do a mud recon mind you i had to pull up before the shipping channel in the dark look like a cruise liner going into port and i could not see the size of the wake so just idled till i found it lol

A bit hit and miss there at the moment i seen a report of some good fish there last weekend , but i normally do not get them until the end of May, i know there are a few in the brissie river at the moment. i also got bit off a few times fishing for snapper hooked the fish 5 winds on the reel and ping gone no hook so that was probably tailor
spoke to a fella at the ramp who fished the wells near the bridge at clontarf for 16 flatties and a few small tailor
still no pike out on the rock at woody point

shane

yep, seen a few at whats left of the Wells on my way over the bridge lately, be time to hit up Hayes for the winter flatty run some

Won't be long Shane - pike are already thick at Peel Island. Saw huge schools of them in the usual spots on Sunday and picked up a couple of dozen while breamin on the reefs.

Did manage a 31cm and 29cm bream though...

Cheers

No worries Shane, you could be right though - water is crystal clear at Peel ATM...
