Nq Flyfishers go fishing

Just a short report. This week the club decided to go to the pylons and Cockle Bay of Magnetic Island. The weather looked good, the tides seemed right. We only had one boat and two fly fishers for the trip. We started early and went to the pylons to see if there were any mackerel around. We thought as there was plenty of bait fish this should not be a problem. What we found was quite different. The larger predators were just not feeding. OK no problem off to the inside and see what Cockle Bay had to offer. Here we thought the depth of water would be good. But this time the water was a little shallow so we changed the plan and drifted the outer edge. here we found a nice variety of fish including a legal coral trout. Thanks Richard for a nice mornings fishing.
